About this product

Product Information

'Pepys's Navy' describes every aspect the English navy in the second half of the seventeenth century, from the time when the Fleet Royal was taken into Parliamentary control after the defeat of Charles I, until the accession of William and Mary in 1689 when the long period of war with the Dutch came to an end. This is a crucial era which witnessed the creation of a permanent naval service, in essence the birth of the Royal Navy. Every aspect of the navy is covered - naval administration, ship types and shipbuilding, naval recruitment and crews, seamanship and gunnery, shipboard life, dockyards and bases, the foreign navies of the period, and the three major wars which were fought against the Dutch in the Channel and the North Sea. Samuel Pepys, whose thirty years of service did so much to replace the ad hoc processes of the past with systems for construction and administration, is one of the most significant players, and the navy which was, by 1690, ready for the 100 years of global struggle with the French owed much to his tireless work. This is a hugely significant book for historians, naval enthusiasts and for all those with an interest in Pepys and this colourful era of the seventeenth century, and a new affordable paperback edition will be widely welcomed. AUTHOR: David Davies is the country's leading historian of the navy of this period and the author of the critically-acclaimed 'Gentlemen and Tarpaulin's. He has also written a series of novels based on the naval episodes of this era. He is Chairman of the Naval Dockyards Society and sits on the Council of the Navy Records Society. SELLING POINTS: . New paperback edition of the definitive work on the navy of this era . Winner of the Samuel Pepys Award and Latham Medal 2009 . Published to coincide with the opening of a major new 17th- century gallery at the National Maritime Museum 800 colour illustrations
