A picture and a naval order signed by David Farragut c. 1868. David Farragut was a naval officer for decades but his crowning achievements took place during the Civil War. Farragut was assigned to command the West Gulf Blockading Squadron, and seize New Orleans and the Mississippi from the Confederacy. Farragut gained control of the Mississippi, providing a crucial foothold for the battle of Vicksburg and also led the attack on Mobile Bay. After the battle of New Orleans, Farragut was promoted to admiral, a position he maintained for the rest of his life. Frame Size 16.5" h x 22.5" w
