His ship was sinking. The British demanded his surrender. John Paul Jones was too determined and audacious.

September 1779. Off the coast of England, the tired American warship, Bonhomme Richard, is on fire. Her guns shattered, water pouring into her hull. Alongside her is HMS Serapis, a newer, better-armed British warship. Any ordinary captain would have struck his colors long ago.

In Episode 10 of Stories of American Legends, I tell the story of John Paul Jones, the Scottish-born sailor who became a Father of the American Navy. From his rough start at sea to his command in the Continental Navy, this is the man who took the Revolutionary War to Britain’s coast.

This is the beginning of American naval history.
