The Royal dockyards, which have a tradition of shipbuilding that stretches back almost 500 years, have a fascinating history.
Britain’s successful war with Argentina to repossess the Falklands witnessed the largest combined sea and air battles fought since the Second World War. The courage of Royal Navy commanders, sailors and pilots was put to a severe test on more than one occasion and was never found wanting. But there were tragic losses of men and ships and there remain disturbing questions which need to be answered.
This book presents a total history of the Royal Navy by drawing on the specialist knowledge of 14 expert contributors who between them cover every aspect of naval history from the Anglo-Saxon period to submarine warfare in the nuclear age.
