Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a journal of the expeditions of Admiral Sir George Rooke, an English flag officer, during the War of the Spanish Succession. The first part of his diary describes an Anglo-Dutch expedition of 1700 that aimed to prevent war between Sweden and Denmark, while the second part describes the Cadiz expedition of 1702, a plan by the Grand Alliance to capture Cadiz from Spanish and French forces, which ultimately resulted in failure.
