The Northern Barrage And Other Mining Activities is a historical book written by Josephus Daniels in 1920. It provides an account of the mining activities carried out by the United States during World War I in the North Sea. The book describes the challenges faced by the US Navy in laying the Northern Barrage, a minefield stretching from the Orkney Islands to Norway, to prevent German submarines from entering the Atlantic. Daniels, who was the Secretary of the Navy at the time, also discusses other mining operations conducted by the US Navy, such as the laying of the North Sea Mine Barrage and the Dover Barrage. The book includes details about the technology used in mining, the role of the Navy in the war effort, and the impact of mining on the outcome of the war. It is a valuable resource for those interested in naval history and the role of the United States in World War I.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
