What is America's naval heritage : a catalog of early imprints from the Navy Department Library about?

<p>In celebrating its 200th anniversary in the year 2000, the Navy Department Library embarked on a project to highlight its unique role in preserving the nation’s naval heritage. &nbsp;Selecting, compiling, reviewing, and editing catalog entries required the commitment, dedication, and hard work of experts in early naval literature, a small library staff, and a conscientious editor. &nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The publishing of America’s Naval Heritage was made possible by the Department of Defense Legacy Program that identifies special military, natural, and cultural resources. &nbsp;For its part, the library’s project sought to broaden access to historical materials, to encourage naval research and scholarship, and to identify, evaluate, and preserve important military heritage assets. &nbsp;Publishing this catalog not only celebrates the Navy Department Library’s 200th year of continuous service but also gives all Americans and the international community of scholars a look into the rare and valuable literature that records the earliest traditions and history of the U.S. Navy.</p>
