America's Greatest Achievement at Sea

-
America's Greatest Achievement at Sea It's Fleet Week! So we asked six historians to share their thoughts on America's greatest achievement at sea. Their responses are as diverse as the sea itself. From the canoes paddled by native peoples to the submarines that harness nuclear energy, our maritime heritage has shaped the nation's economy and scientific activity, its warmaking capability, and its arts and entertainments. That history is tied to the history of the vessels themselves. In the 1500s, fur trappers paddled throughout the Upper Midwest, extending trade surely but slowly. By the 1700s, whalers and commercial fishermen were launching new industries in boats designed for the rigors of their work. As the country matured, seamen hoisted sail on a series of majestic wooden ships, carrying American goods first coastally, then inland and ultimately worldwide.

If you want a premium top-of-the-range phone from the likes of Apple or Samsung, expect a dent of at least £500 in your bank account.
