Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If history is written by the victor, the history of 19th Century Britain is indelibly linked to ?the wooden walls of Old England? - the Navy. In the 1820s numerous former Naval officers put quill to paper to recount their great adventures and the victories that helped extend the British Empire. Invariably, they credited the British seamen, in every part of the world, for ?enlarging the domains of religion and civilization? and for offering ?the oppressed asylum and fighting the scourge of tyranny.' In reality, life on board for many a common seaman was marked by oppression and brutal punishment, metered out by officers and sanctioned by the government. For a sailor from the lower deck to write of his experiences in battle or criticize the Navy and its harsh disciplinary practices was virtually unheard of until 1836, when William Robinson published his powerful and controversial book, A Nautical Economy; Or Forecastle Recollections of Events During the Last War. This new edition is the first to provide both reviews of the book at the time of its release in 1836 and details of the author's life after he departed the Navy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horatio Nelson was a hero from the time when his dramatic initiative won the battle of St Vincent in 1797, while his last battle, at Trafalgar, reduced the enemy naval forces so thoroughly that they were no longer able to have any bearing on the outcome of the war. As well as being a brilliant study of those naval battles which played such an important role in Napoleon's defeat, it also makes a close study of the admiral's art which, during the last years of the eighteenth century, developed faster than at any time since the previous century and led to Britain's mastery of the seas for more than 100 years. The Seven Years War and the War of the American Revolution stimulated the development of new ideas and the experience gained from them, as well as the developments in ship design and signalling, and the perfection of drill, transformed naval methods. Nelson became a master of them all. This technical prowess, combined with a remarkable ability to lead his men and his genius for making decisive moves, 'the Nelson touch', made him the consummate master of naval warfare. Highly readable, concise and insightful, this new edition will prove a popular choice for those seeking an introduction to naval warfare in the age of sail.
