Does anyone know of a good Book about David Farragut? He recently came up on a Jeapordy Show, and I realized I didn't know much about him.

thanks,

I believe the reference was to mines...which were called torpedoes back in the civil war.

I just recently read Divided Waters which talks about some of Farragut's actions during the Civil War. But it is really about the entire naval situation during the Civil War.
