Download or read book Representing the Royal Navy written by Margarette Lincoln and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 18th century, Britain became a great imperial power through war and its ability to maintain a strong navy. There have been many political and military histories of the sailing Navy that look at battles and personalities, aspects of naval administration and life below decks.

It explores the place of the Navy in the formation of public attitudes to war and peace, nation and empire, race and gender.

As well as drawing on literary sources, the author uses the vast collections of the National Maritime Museum - paintings, cartoons, ceramics, amongst others - to focus attention on material that has been little exploited.
