Summary: "Reminiscences of Two Years in the United States Navy" by John M. Batten is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative offers a personal perspective on Batten’s experiences as an Acting Assistant Surgeon in the United States Navy during the Civil War. The book likely covers various naval operations along the coast of North Carolina, delving into both the medical and military aspects of warfare during that tumultuous period. At the start of the book, Batten reflects on his early days in the Navy, detailing his initial appointment and his transition to duty aboard the United States steamer Princeton. He vividly describes various incidents, including a close encounter while rowing and an emotional farewell to his mother, which sets a personal tone for his recounting of naval life. The opening also introduces several key figures, such as Dr. McClelland, the experienced surgeon aboard the Princeton, as well as Batten’s subsequent assignment to the Valley City. Through his memories, readers gain insight into the challenges, camaraderie, and experiences faced by those serving in the Navy during the Civil War. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
