Product Description
The Battle of Midway. Pearl Harbor. Tsushima. The Dardanelles. The twentieth century saw some of the most devastating and world-changing sea battles ever known. Empires fell, new governments arose, and day-to-day life was changed forever. In Maritime Dominion, Peter Padfield examines the terrible wars of the last century, reaching controversial and sometimes startling conclusions.
Padfield demonstrates how important maritime strength remained for the security and stability of the western world. Maritime Dominion richly illustrates the importance of naval primacy over the past 150 years and brings to life the sea battles that changed modern history.
PETER PADFIELD's trilogy includes Maritime Power and Maritime Supremacy, both published by Overlook. His work as a naval historian received the Mountbatten Maritime Prize.
