- From The Earliest Times To The Wars Of The French Revolution (1847)

Bag om A History Of The Royal Navy

""A History Of The Royal Navy: From The Earliest Times To The Wars Of The French Revolution"" is a comprehensive account of the British Royal Navy, written by Nicholas Harris Nicolas and first published in 1847. The book covers the history of the Royal Navy from its earliest origins through to the end of the French Revolutionary Wars in 1802. The book is divided into several parts, each covering a different period in the Navy's history. The first part covers the early history of the Navy, including the Anglo-Saxon period and the Norman Conquest. The second part covers the Tudor period, including the reigns of Henry VIII, Elizabeth I and the Armada. The third part covers the Stuart period, including the English Civil War and the Restoration. The fourth part covers the 18th century, including the Seven Years' War and the American Revolutionary War. The final part covers the French Revolutionary Wars, including the Battle of Trafalgar and the Napoleonic Wars.Throughout the book, Nicolas provides detailed accounts of key naval battles and campaigns, as well as insights into the development of naval technology and tactics. He also explores the social and cultural context of the Navy, including the lives of sailors and officers, and the role of the Navy in British society.Overall, ""A History Of The Royal Navy"" is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most important institutions in British history. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Royal Navy, British naval power, or the history of warfare more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
