Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Navy in the War of 1739-48, Vol. 1 The war which lasted from 1739 to 1748 marks a definite phase in English naval history. The seventeenth century, which in an historical sense may be said to have lasted until the peace of Utrecht, had been a period in which the sea had played a supremely important part. It had been a century in which colonial expansion had held the foremost place in the external policy of England. As the sixteenth century had witnessed the discoveries of the Portuguese and Spaniards, and the acquisition by those powers of vast dominions and trading interests oversea, so the following hundred years had seen Holland, England and France stretching out their arms both in the East and in the West. England had become a truly maritime power on a new scale. She had taken her place as a factor to be reckoned with in the Mediterranean, as a colonial power in the West Indies and America and as a trading power in the Far East, where the first year of the century was marked by the establishment of the East India Company. The eighteenth cen tury inherited the effects of this development, which shewed themselves in a struggle, lasting through a series of wars, to decide whether France or the United Kingdom should finally become the great colonial power.

Book The History of the Navy During the Rebellion  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The History of the Navy During the Rebellion Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Charles B. Boynton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Navy During the Rebellion, Vol. 1 With England and France, therefore, the most interesting question connected with our affairs has been, whether we could create a truly formidable Navy. Our naval strength was the standard by which they measured their power to attack, and ours to defend. They did not believe it possible for us to pro duce a Navy in a few months which could both seal up our long line of sea-coast and defy their own most formidable ships, and this mistaken judgment was the main influence in deciding their policy in regard to American affairs. A history of the Navy, then, is a history of that power by which Europe gauges our national importance, and by which our rank among nations is assigned: because, until a true Christian civilization prevails, the nobler attributes of a nation will be overlooked in view of its ability to carry on a great war; and because, if the 'united States should ever wage a great European war, the battles would be mainly upon the seas. While our Army has done a work beyond all praise, and has settled the question of our ability to defend our territory against any force which could be brought here, the Navy has saved us from foreign intervention that could not have been otherwise avoided, while at the same time its labors in putting down the rebellion have been far greater than has been gener ally supposed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Miscellany, Vol. 1 IN the course of the last few years I have received from different quarters and have collected a variety Of documents, individually too short for a volume, and yet of such interest as to render it very desirable to lay them before the Society. In considering how best to do this, the Council resolved that they would from time to time issue a miscellaneous volume Of such papers. This is the first. In preparing the several items Of it for the press, I have had the able assistance of Mr. Corbett. Who, fresh from his studies Of Drake and Drake's successors, took charge of the Voyage to Cadiz, ' which, by itself, with its unique map and representations of early divisional flags, would make the volume noteworthy. For the editing Of the other papers I am personally responsible, though I have unsparingly taxed the assistance of many friends to whom I have referred points Of difficulty. To them and to the owners Of the papers I return my warmest thanks for the gift - not to me, but to the Society, and through it.
