A treasure hunt through the centuries... Before you is a real life odyssey depicting lost riches and forgotten American history in Gloucester, Virginia, and the communities across the dividing river, named York. These nearby towns of Yorktown, Jamestown, Williamsburg, Newport News, Hampton, and the many hamlets - collectively referred to as the Virginia Peninsula - are names that resonate through American lore. Besides proximity, they have all been tied together by people and events for nearly half a millennium. This is not a trek that can be told through a single generational experience, but through many, including my generation, from a young boy into adulthood. I did not realize I was a part of the story until later in my life. Underlying all the coincidences that I discovered is a particular secret of a family's heritage that includes mysteries of hidden fortunes interwoven into the fabric of history. The depictions in this experience are graced with a lifetime of discoveries and ancestors' experiences as expressed in their letters, ship logs, and diaries as interpreted in translation to the twenty-first century. These selected and thematic perspectives are sometimes presented separately and sometimes interwoven together to tell the intricate story and better explain history's influences on a special place, its people, and its hidden treasures to reveal - the Secret of Sarah's Creek."

The Union Navy played a vital role in winning the Civil War by blockading Confederate ports, cooperating with the Union Army in amphibious assaults, and operating on the Mississippi River and its tributaries. To wage this multifaceted war, Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles divided the Union Navy into six squadrons. The book examines who Welles assigned to squadron command and why he appointed these officers. Taaffe argues that President Abraham Lincoln gave Welles considerable latitude in picking squadron commanders. Lincoln not only trusted Welles's judgment, but he also understood that the Navy was not as important to the Union war effort militarily and politically as the Army, so there was less of a need for him to oversee closely its operations. Welles used this authority to make appointments to squadron command based on several criteria. Welles factored into his mental calculations seniority, availability, and political connections, but he was most interested in an officer's record, character, and abilities. Although some of Welles's earliest selections left something to be desired, his insight improved markedly as the war continued and he gained a greater understanding of the Navy and its officer corps. Indeed, by the end of the conflict, Welles had become quite ruthless in his search for effective squadron commanders capable of filling the Navy's increasingly difficult missions. In doing so, he contributed greatly to Union victory in the Civil War. The book covers some of the Civil War's most important campaigns and battles, such as the Union assaults on New Orleans, Charleston, Mobile Bay, and Fort Fisher, and the fighting on the Mississippi River.
