episode 2: 2- The Quasi-War and Barbary Coast Pirates
Right as we gain our independence, the Napoleonic Wars break out in Europe leading to a brief, undeclared war against our former ally France. Following the Quasi-War, you'll hear about US Navy actions in the Barbary Wars against the pirate states of North Africa featuring bribery, coups, battles, and the story of what legendary British Admiral Nelson called “the most bold and daring act of the age.”
