Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the joint legislative resolution passed in the Vermont State House on October 29, 1902, to honor Rear Admiral Charles E. Clark and his service to the United States Navy. The book features an address by former governor William W. Stickney, who highlights Clark's leadership and bravery in the Spanish-American War, particularly his command of the USS Oregon at the Battle of Santiago. The resolution included a commission to create a portrait of Clark to be displayed in the State Capitol, which is described in detail by the artist, Frederic P. Vinton. Governor John G. McCullough accepted the portrait on behalf of the state, and Clark himself expressed his gratitude and deep affection for his native Vermont. The book provides a rich account of Clark's distinguished career and the pride and admiration held for him by his home state.
