Key naval concepts including warfare tactics, materials, and shipbuilding are discussed in depth. The author argues that naval advancements, frequently spurred by wartime innovation, have accelerated societal progress throughout the nineteenth century and beyond. Beginning with the conservative naval climate of the 1700s, the book traces the ways in which the advent of new technologies, from steamships and ironclad vessels to improved armament, forever altered the nature of warfare. The book also examines how changes in international diplomacy and global trade influenced naval development, and includes a thought-provoking discussion of the ethical challenges posed by modern naval warfare. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in naval history and its wider historical context.
