Hardback. Condizione: Fair. The only comparative analysis available of the great navies of World War I, this work studies the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom, the German Kaiserliche Marine, the United States Navy, the French Marine Nationale, the Italian Regia Marina, the Austro-Hungarian Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine, and the Imperial Russian Navy to demonstrate why the war was won, not in the trenches, but upon the waves. It explains why these seven fleets fought the way they did and why the war at sea did not develop as the admiralties and politicians of 1914 expected.After discussing each navy?s goals and circumstances and how their individual characteristics impacted the way they fought, the authors deliver a side-by-side analysis of the conflict?s fleets, with each chapter covering a single navy. Parallel chapter structures assure consistent coverage of each fleet?history, training, organisation, doctrine, materiel, and operations?and allow readers to easily compare information among the various navies. The book clearly demonstrates how the naval war was a collision of 19th century concepts with 20th century weapons that fostered unprecedented development within each navy and sparked the evolution of the submarine and aircraft carrier. The work is free from the national bias that infects so many other books on World War I navies. As they pioneer new ways of viewing the conflict, the authors provide insights and material that would otherwise require a massive library and mastery of multiple languages. Such a study has special relevance today as 20th-century navies struggle to adapt to 21st-century technologies.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. In 1866, Dr. David Livingstone, a British explorer, embarked on an expedition to the African interior to find the source of the Nile River. Five years later, a reporter named Henry Morton Stanley was sent to find the missing Livingstone. The meeting between the two men would attract enormous attention from all over the world, setting off a wave of European efforts to set up colonies in Africa. Highlighting the unique lives and personalities of the first two major white explorers of Africa, author Richard Worth shows how two men began what has come to be called the Scramble for Africa, a rush to colonize that would change the fate of a continent.…
