Synopsis
A Postscript to the Section On Iron Defenses, by Howard Douglas, is a detailed response to criticisms leveled against the fifth edition of his work, "Naval Gunnery." Specifically, Douglas addresses the points raised by a reviewer in 'The Quarterly Review' of October 1860, focusing on what he identifies as erroneous principles concerning iron defenses in naval warfare.
Published in 1861, this postscript offers insights into the technical and strategic debates surrounding naval technology during a period of rapid innovation. It will appeal to historians of science and technology, military historians, and anyone interested in the development of naval warfare in the 19th century. This volume provides a valuable, contemporary perspective on the evolving challenges of naval defense and gunnery.
