A crisp, sweeping glance at a dramatic clash that shaped naval history. A human-scale tale told with a historian's precision and a storyteller's clarity. This edition presents Frederick Milnes Edge's An Englishman's View Of The Battle Between The Alabama And The Kearsarge as more than a reprint - it is a restored, essential artifact for readers and researchers alike. The work blends a vivid, period military history with a primary source chronicle that captures the tensions, tactics, and aftermath of the Alabama-Kearsarge clash in the English Channel on a summer day in 1864. It speaks to the civil war era naval power, victor and vanquished alike, and to the broader currents of Victorian Britain's perception of maritime prowess. The narrative travels through English channel waters with a scholar's restraint and a citizen's curiosity, connecting British naval tradition to a pivotal American conflict. For casual readers and academic nautical history followers, this volume offers a rare, accessible window into naval warfare tactics and the era's maritime culture - a genuine history student reference that invites comparison with other entries in the gutenberg naval history collection. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it stands as a collector's item and a cultural treasure for anyone exploring the alabama kearsarge clash, imperial British romance, and the art of historical storytelling.
