Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition; 3 vols, 4to (28.5 x 22.5 cm); 3 chromo-lithograph vignette titles, 43 full-page chromo-lithograph plates including portrait frontispieces, frontispiece of vol 1 a little loose; contemporary blue half morocco, blue cloth boards ruled in gilt, spine lettered in gilt in six gilt compartments, a little rubbed, a very…good set and internally very clean. The first edition of Charles Rathbone Low's (1837-1918) illustrated history of the Royal Navy, from its origins under the auspices of the Tudor court to the close of the nineteenth century, including the Battle of Trafalgar with separate colour plates of HMS Victory and Lord Nelson. The work was published in the wake of the fleet review at Spithead, a display of force occasioned by the visit of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Admiral Tirpitz to the United Kingdom in 1889. The same year, Britain adopted the Naval Defence Act and its infamous 'two-power standard', which required the Royal Navy to maintain a fleet of battleships equal in number to the combined strength of the world's next two largest navies. The author of the present work, Charles Low, served in the East India Company navy from 1853 to 1863, attaining the rank of lieutenant. Upon his retirement, he was appointed the first librarian and assistant secretary to the Royal United Services Institute, and later established himself as a writer of naval history and fiction.
