  • Spring 2016 ● Vol
    2016 Spring Edition The Newport Commandery is proud to announce that on 5 March 2016, Naval War College historian and professor John B. Hattendorf was awarded a Doctor of Letters (D.Litt.) degree from the University of Oxford, England. The degree is considered above the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) or Doctor of Education (Ed.D.). It is issued on the basis of high achievement in the respective field or a long record of research and publication to candidates whose record of published work and research shows conspicuous ability and originality and constitutes a distinguished and sustained achievement. The Naval Order has been invited to honor our Historian General, Professor John Hattendorf, on his impending retirement from the Naval War College by subscribing to a book Strategy and the Sea published by Boydell & Brewer. For those of us who are new to the publishing world’s terminology, the word “festschrift” is a volume of learned articles and essays contributed to an edited work by the colleagues and admirers of a scholar, generally as a tribute upon retirement. A “tabula gratulatoria” is a page in that volume that contains the names of people who have contributed either by writing a chapter of the volume, or by helping fund the effort. Each commandery can have its name printed in the tabula by subscribing to the book. Individuals in the commandery can also have their names printed by purchasing their own copy of the book. This book would make a lovely gift for speakers or commandery raffles. John B. Hattendorf is the Ernest J.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.
