โฆ Synopsis
John Keegan is an author whose books have revolutionized the writing of military history and deepened our understanding of human conflict.
In THE PRICE OF ADMIRALTY, Keegan illuminates naval operations from Nelson's day to our own. He does this by dissecting four benchmark sea battles: Trafalgar, wooden ships of the line; Jutland, ironclads; Midway, aircraft carriers; and the Battle of the Atlantic, which saw the perfection of submarines. Keegan believes that "by looking at its past we may know the future of naval warfare."
"Keegan is a splendid historian, and his vision of the future of war at sea is grimly persuasive." (The Atlantic Monthly)
