Book
Hardback, 438 pages illustrated throughoutPublished Price £60 The origins of a permanent French sailing navy can be traced to the work of Cardinal Richelieu in the 1620s, but this naval force declined rapidly in the 1650s and a virtually new _Marine Royale_ had to be re-created by Colbert from 1661\. Thereafter, Louis XIV"s navy grew rapidly to become the largest and most powerful in the world, at the same time establishing a reputation for the quality of its ship design that lasted until the end of sail. The eighteenth century was to see defeat and decline, revival and victory, but by 1786 the French Navy had emerged from its most successful naval war having frequently outfought or outmanoeuvred the British Navy in battle, and in the process making a major contribution to American independence. Those readers who value books for their visual content, have a treat in store with the the many black and white illustrations and profiles.This book is the first comprehensive listing of these ships in English, and follows the pattern set by its companion volume on the 1786 - 1861 period in providing an impressive depth of information. It is organised by Rate, classification and class, with significant technical and building data, followed by highlights of the careers of each ship in every class. Thus for the first time it is possible to form a clear picture of the overall development of French warships throughout the whole of the sailing era. The standard English-language reference work, its publication is of the utmost importance to every naval historian and reader interested in the navies of the sailing era.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Hard cover dust wrapper, large quarto, 128pp, photos, plans, cutaways, drawings. Plans/cutaways of HMS Leopard in pocket on rear pastedown. Light wear to dw/board edges; a near fine copy. By the end of the sailing era the 50-gun ship had become regarded as a hybrid, too small to stand in the line of battle, and lacking the speed and hardiness of the frigate, so it has often been dismissed as a naval architectural dinosaur left over from an earlier age. This book aims to reveal the crucial role of the 50-gun ship in the development of both the battleship and the frigate, and explains the enduring role which ensured the survival of the type into the 19th century. Charting its origins in the pre-Commonwealth frigates, the author follows the development of the type in the 18th century and its gradual transition from battlefleet to heavy cruiser role, highlighting its revival for the special conditions of colonial warfare during the American Revolution. Thereafter they were employed as peacetime flagships for distant stations, achieving final glory leading small craft in anti-invasion operations during the Napoleonic War. Includes: textual history of the 50-gun ship; tables of technical data covering dimensions, construction, armament and details; collection of illustrations including original draughts, models and contemporary paintings and drawings; a selection of perspective and cutaway drawings; a seperate loose set of plans (on a large foldout) of the HMS Leopard.
