Contact seller4-star sellerOctavo, blue boards (hardcover), 232 pp. Very Good, with neat former-owner bookplate; in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: From its first tentative beginnings forty years ago, the Fleet Air Arm has grown in importance unti now it has become the dominating factor in naval warfare. During the war years of 1914… - 1918, it was a virile infant of infintine promise; the next twenty years saw it grow in strength and stamina, so that when, in 1939, it again took the air in anger, it did so as a mature and immensely powerful weapon capable of playing a vital and decisive part in victory at sea. This is the story of the Fleet Air Arm from its earliest days to the 1914 raids on the Zeppelin sheds at Friedrichshaven (when a 25-lb. bomb was a big one); to the first aerial torpedo attacks on shipping in the Sea of Marmora; to the epic battles of the last war -- the raid on the Italian fleet at Taranto, the crippling of the German battleship Bismarck, the Ruissian and Malta convoys and the non-stop attacks on Japanese outposts in the Pacific. It is a record of epic achievement, revealing the rise of naval aviation as one of the milestones of British sea history, the latest chacpter in the naval story that began some five hundred years ago. Fully authentic, this new book by the Admiralty Archivist is of value not only as an important contribution to to contemporary naval history, but as a dramatic narrative in which courage and indomitable determination are the keynote qualities.
