Naval History 1500–1680 cover

In recent decades historians have studied several new aspects of early modern naval history and placed it in a wider context than traditional studies of naval warfare. This volume brings together 23 studies on naval technology, policy-making and administration, tactics, strategy, operations and warfare on trade. They provide new insights and new ideas for further studies.

'The value of this volume it that is brings together a number of important articles on naval history in the early modern period.' Intl Jrnl of Maritime History '...such essays deserve to be republished...together, they form a complex portrait of the early modern maritime world...' The Northern Mariner '..there is plenty for the naval historian to feast upon in this anthology.' Sixteenth Century Journal
