"adieu Foe Ever." the attempt on the french west indies--home life--the operations of 1675-76 death. With the conclusion of the war of 1672-73, de Ruyter's fame as a seaman again increased. His masterly conduct of the contest against the two most powerful nations in Europe, was a source of universal admiration. The bold attack at Solebay, which defeated the plan of invasion in 1672, the patient defensive strategy in the shoals of Schooneveldt, when the navy of the Netherlands had been unavoidably reduced in strength, followed as it was by two repulses inflicted on the superior fleets of the Allies, had greatly impressed his contemporaries. When to these triumphs succeeded the battle of Kykduin, and the eventual relief of Holland from all threats by sea, de Ruyter's renown passed all previous limits. While it was seen how his unremitting attention to details had shaped the Dutch navy to the requirements of his strategy, it is possible that the deterioration which was proceeding on the other side of the Channel, and its results in assisting de Ruyter's success, may have been overlooked, as well as the want of the determination to combat the Dutch with the same untiring energy as in Cromwell's war.f The English nation had given Charles but very grudging assistance in his two wars.

Book excerpt: "Was Michiel de Ruyter the greatest sea commander who ever lived? Or simply the greatest sea-commander of the 17th century? Some people see him as the man who saved the Dutch Republic, and ensured its independence. He knew how to fight a sea-battle on the grandest scale. He could also haggle like a canny Dutch merchant, achieving the release of Hungarian clergymen from Spanish captivity and that of Dutch sailors from barbarian imprisonment. Louis XIV, often his opponent, called him 'a man who did honour to humanity'. In this book, nine leading historical authorities, from seven different countries, examine his astonishing career."--Book jacket.
