It was Alfred the Great who realized that the only real line of defense for an island is an efficient navy. Thus he began to build the first British fleet. This engaging history, the first of two volumes, traces Britain’s naval history from its inception to the Battle of Trafalgar, one of the pinnacles of England’s naval glory.
