'"It follows ... as certain as night succeeds day, that without a decisive naval force we can do nothing definitive, and that with it everything honourable and glorious." George Washington
'Control of the sea has always been a deciding factor in war, and before the nuclear bomb, no weapon evoked as much fear as the battleship. Explore the heroic exploits and life-or-death clashes in this global history of naval warfare produced in association with the Royal Navy as commanders and their crews battle each other, and the elements, for ultimate rule of the waves.
'EVERY MAJOR CONFLICT
'Understand the causes, events, and consequences of every major engagement in maritime history, as stirring battle accounts, dramatic photographs and illustrations, and spectacular 3D battle plans combine to recreate the action in graphic detail.'
