Fifty-two Stories of the British Navy, from Damme to Trafalgar

This volume contains fifty-two stories of the British Navy from Damme to Trafalgar. These stories are arranged chronologically, and, without pretending to be a complete history of the British Navy, provide fifty-two consecutive links of the chain which for a thousand years has bound the sovereignty of the seas to the British throne. In preparing this series many historical and biographical works have been laid under contribution.
