Autorenporträt

Authored by Talbott, John E.

Inhaltsangabe

The Naval Review - "It is a well written study in the Cass Series on Naval
Policy and History with the bonus that the American author does provide
insights and comments that might have eluded one dyed in Royal Navy blue.
Barhman deserves his Battleship; Talbott his readership".
Military History- mixed report"- see file "This book is clearly written and
well researched"
The Northern Mariner, Jan 2000
"The book is based on solid documentary research, the prose is clear and
the illustrations are pertinent. ... This book is most welcome and
recommended, as it fills some huge gaps in Royal Navy history."
The Marnier"s Mirror
"a provocative and valuable contribution to the history of the civil
departments of the navy"
"an interesting, insightful biography of a largely forgotten man who,
though a veteran sea dog with a distinguished record as a ship"s captain,
was a particularly capable administrator"
