Synopsis
Throughout the chronicle of Britain's history, one factor above all others has determined the fate of kings, the security of trade, and the integrity of the realm. Without its navy, Britain would have been a weakling among the nations of Europe, could never have built or maintained the empire, and in all likelihood would have been overrun by the armies of Napoleon and Hitler. Now, for the first time in nearly a century, a prominent naval historian has undertaken a comprehensive account of the history and traditions of this most essential institution. N. A. M. Rodger has produced a superb work, combining scholarship with narrative, that demonstrates how the political and social history of Britain has been inextricably intertwined with the strength-or weakness-of her seapower. From the early military campaigns against the Vikings to the defeat of the great Spanish Armada in the reign of Elizabeth I, this volume touches on some of the most colorful characters in British history. It also provides fascinating details on naval construction, logistics, health, diet, and weaponry. "A splendid book. It combines impressively detailed research with breadth of perception....[Rodger] has prepared an admirable historical record that will be read and reread in the years ahead."-- Times [London], Throughout the chronicle of Britain's history, one factor above all others has determined the fate of kings, the security of trade, and the integrity of the realm.

- l***l (52)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopOverall, I am pleased with the condition of the book. However, seller didn't disclose that the very final page in the back had been torn out in the product description. While it probably wouldn't have stopped me from buying the book, I feel it was incredibly dishonest to not make it known that the book was damaged. There were only 2 photos included in the listing. I guess this is on me for not asking to see more photos. I watched this book for a couple months before purchasing, so I had time.
