Frederick T. Wilson was an engineer who carried the rank of firstclass petty officer and served on one of the Navys first modern battleships, the USS Oregon, at the turn of the twentieth century. Wilson offers a rare uncensored picture of enlisted life, with descriptions of bar girls and waterfront establishments that catered to the needs of American bluejackets, as well as observations on world events during imperialism. Wilson also discusses one of the great yet largely ignored issues of the turnofthecentury U.S. Navythe failure of naval officers to provide the quality leadership necessary to ensure the operation of efficient, effective warships. A Sailors Log is a detailed and insightful account of life in the Asiatic Fleet that enriches our understanding of U.S. Navy life a century ago.
