J.D. Davies 
The Naval History of Wales [EPUB ebook] 
Unleashing Britannia’s Dragon

支持

Based on extensive research, The Naval History of Wales tells a compelling story that spans nearly 2, 000 years, from the Romans to the present.
Many Welsh men and women have served in the Royal Navy and the navies of other countries. Welshmen played major parts in voyages of exploration, in the navy’s suppression of the slave trade, and in naval warfare from the Viking era to the Spanish Armada, in the American Civil War, both world wars and the Falklands War.
Comprehensive, enlightening, and provocative, The Naval History of Wales also explodes many myths about Welsh history, naval historian J.D. Davies arguing that most Welshmen in the sailing navy were volunteers and that, relative to the size of national populations, proportionately more Welsh seamen than English fought at Trafalgar.
Written in vivid detail, this volume is one that no maritime or Welsh historian can do without.
