Sobre este artículo
Lincoln And London: University of Nebraska Press, 2009. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Near Fine Hardcover In A Fine Dust Jacket. The Only Mar Is The Previous Owners' Name And Date On Top Of Half-Title Page. 250 Pages Including Index. For Nearly Two Hundred Years Huge Wooden Warships Called "Ships Of The Line" Dominated War At Sea And Were Thus Instrumental In The European Struggle For Power And The Spread Of Imperialism. Foremost Among The Great Naval Powers Were Great Britain And France, Whose Advanced Economies Could Support Large Numbers Of These Expensive Ships. This Book, The First Joint History Of These Great Navies, Offers A Uniquely Impartial And Comprehensive Picture Of The Two Forces-Their Shipbuilding Programs, Naval Campaigns, And Battles, And Their Wartime Strategies And Diplomacy. Jonathan R. Dull Is The Author Of Two Award-Winning Histories Of The French Navy. Bringing To Bear Years Of Study Of War And Diplomacy, His Book Conveys The Fine Details And The High Drama Of The Age Of Grand And Decisive Naval Conflict. Dull Delves Into The Seven Wars That Great Britain And France, Often In Alliance With Lesser Naval Powers Such As Spain And The Netherlands, Fought Between 1688 And 1815. Viewing War As Most Statesmen Of The Time Saw It-As A Contest Of Endurance-He Also Treats The Tragic Side Of The Franco-British Wars, Which Shattered The Greater Security And Prosperity The Two Powers Enjoyed During Their Brief Period As Allies.
