Nemesis and Modern Naval Warfare at Auburn Scandal and War Talk
A Davenport style diary reveals a Auburn scandal where John L Boyen alias Boyd and brother Atos Doyen abandoned wives for new marriages in a Westward drift. Wives pursue husbands with claims and legal action follows as the community reacts. Also a section on Modern Naval Warfare argues ironclads require strategy, not just courage, and proposes temporary fenders to absorb blows.
