Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. "Sir John Fisher [1841-1920], commonly known as Jacky or Jackie Fisher, was a British Admiral of the Fleet. With more than sixty years in the Royal Navy, his efforts to reform the service helped to usher in an era of modernisation which saw the supersession of wooden sailing ships armed with muzzle-loading cannon by steel-hulled battlecruisers, submarines and the first aircraft carriers. He had a reputation as an innovator, strategist and developer of the navy rather than as a seagoing admiral involved in major battles, although in his career he experienced all these things." - Wikipedia. "Fisher's papers which form the subject matter of these volumes are official papers, written by, or at the instigation of, Fisher in his capacity as First Sea Lord, and submitted by him to the Board as declarations of naval policy." - Introduction. p. xxvi, [1]-413, [7] ads; xii, [1]-472, [6] ads.
