The 19th century was a crucial period in naval history when great technological advances were made in almost every area of maritime military activity. This illustrated account of the period follows a summary of technology, tactics and strategy with accounts of warfare in the Napoleonic era and the factors that led to British naval supremacy. With the background to change now established, he proceeds to describe the revolutions that followed in naval ordnance, propulsion, iron hulls and underwater warfare, and how these were used in practice mid-century in the Crimean and American Civil Wars. He reviews the naval situation before World War I, examining naval thought and international attitudes towards battleship size, and speed versus armour, and shows how these important changes were put into practice in the Sino-Japanese, Russo-Japanese and Spanish-American wars. He concludes with an overview of the world naval balance on the eve of World War I.

By the end of the Napoleonic wars, the Royal Navy's shore-based facilities employed nearly 16,000 people in Great Britain and formed the greatest manufacturing complex in the world. This volume recounts the development of the dockyards and their infrastructure, logistics, and operations as the introduction of new technology forged a revolution in ship design and construction. It spans the construction of the first purpose-built workshops for maintenance and repair in 1830 to the symbolic end of the Victorian era in the Royal Navy with the completion of HMS Dreadnought in 1906. The book includes chapters on Woolwich and the first steam factory; iron construction; the technological edge; Greene, Scamp and the integrated factory; HMS Volcano and the development of mobile logistics; mechanization; building the first iron warships; and coaling the navy. Fully illustrated with plans, drawings, engravings, and maps, this comprehensive history is both an essential reference and fascinating reading.
