About This Item
London: Pimlico, 2000. Softcover. Excellent. 340 pages. 6" x 9-1/4". Indexed. B&W photos. In the great wars of modern history maritime powers have always prevailed over land-based empires, whether Habsburg, Napolenoic, Nazi, or Soviet. This book charts the growth of linked strengths - sea fighting, trading, financial, and constitutional - which made them so formidable. It also reveals the way in which supremacy at sea freed thought and society itself.
