23506. Weems, John Edward. THE FATE OF THE MAINE. New York. 1958
- Weems, John Edward. THE FATE OF THE MAINE. New York. 1958. 207 p. DJ. This is the dramatic story of a ship – from the laying of her keel in 1888, to her burial in 1912. The Maine was the first US warship to be designed by naval architects and built in a government shipyard – the pride of the American fleet. Woven into this chronicle are the exciting events that surrounded the Spanish-American War and the destruction of the Maine on the night of February 15, 1898. (VG). $18
