| Publisher Description: National and world leaders, movie stars, film producers, sports figures, and daily tourists are all intrigued by the mystique of Naval Academy life. USNA Life takes a look at the historic beginnings of the homes, unique customs and family life at the United States Naval Academy and Annapolis, Maryland. Residents tell stories from the earliest days of the "Yard" to the present and enrich our understanding of this American Camelot, where social customs have evolved while traditions have been upheld. The relationship between the civilian town of Annapolis and the growth of the Academy has not always been cordial, yet the two partners have supported each other to prosper. Find heartwarming, behind-the-scenes anecdotes of idyllic life on the Yard where families nurture the development of future national leaders. |
