THE
NAVAL HISTORY OF GREAT BRITAIN - Volume 5: During the French Revolutionary
and Napoleonic Wars 1808-1811
William M. James with a new introduction
by Andrew Lambert
(456 pages) STK
Price $34.95
HB
"William M. James's Naval History is one of the most
valuable works in the English language on the operation of the Royal Navy
during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. James corresponded
widely with the survivors of the events he describes. By carefully
evaluating and balancing conflicting reports and testimonies, he achieved an
accuracy often lacking in later studies.
The original five volumes were published in 1822 to
1824, with a six-volume edition appearing in 1826. This new hard-cover
edition, with an introduction by the noted naval historian Andrew Lambert as
well as an index for each volume, provides both scholars and maritime
enthusiasts an accessible and affordable edition of this important work.
Volume V features the 1808-1811 operations of the Royal Navy in the
Mediterranean and Baltic seas, as well as its involvement in the Peninsular
War. In Volume VI, the United States enters the war at sea, and the
1811-1827 battles feature vessels such as the USS Constitution and HMS
Guerriere, Chesapeake and Shannon, United States and Macedonian.
