This book is a deep dive into a rather obscure subject, but Keegan is very good at clearly laying out his theories. I enjoyed it and now know a whole bunch about a topic that will probably never come up. ( ) The best part of this book is Keegan's introduction, which is a brilliant synopsis of how naval warfare came about out of the development of civilized trade and then piracy. Keegan was the best military historian of the 20th century, but his writing and insights are not as good as Victor Davis Hanson's, whom he mentored and opened the field for. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
In BATTLE AT SEA, John Keegan applies to maritime warfare the technique that he put to such brilliant effect in his classic of war on land, THE FACE OF BATTLE. He concentrates on four key conflicts- Trafalgar, Jutland, Midway and the Battle of the Atlantic. He takes us into the very heart of the fighting while providing a remarkable panoramic view of naval warfare through the centuries. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
