| AT WAR AT SEA by Ronald Spector Modern naval warfare began in the Korean Strait in May 1905 in an apocalyptic battle between the Russian and Japanese fleets. To universal astonishment the Russian fleet was annihilated with thirty three ships either sunk or captured.

He is equally strong on such harrowing naval encounters as the British evacuation of Crete or the American 'River War' in Vietnam. 2001, Allen Lane, Penguin Press, , 0713996013,< N-01>,463pp, 45 b/w ills, As new in d/w, , Subject...Naval & Maritime: Ships, Submarines & Other Vessels - GeneralWeb No. 33336-01..............................£12.00 |
