George Martin Stephen (born 1949) was High Master of St. Paul's School in London until 2011. Stephen is an author of titles on modern naval history and war poetry. Eric Grove (born 1948) is a British naval historian and defence analyst. He took an MA in War Studies at King's College London in 1971 and was appointed as a civilian lecturer at the Britannia Royal Naval College Dartmouth. During the 1970s he published widely. In 1980 and 1981 Grove was the first Dartmouth academic to exchange for a year with the United States Naval Academy, Annapolis. Leaving Dartmouth as Deputy Head of Strategic Studies and International Affairs at the end of 1984 Grove worked briefly for the Council for Arms Control before becoming a freelance academic and defence consultant. His work on Maritime Power and European Security involved the creation of a back channel, later official, dialogue between the Soviet, US and Royal Navies. Ten major naval engagements are thoroughly analyzed in this authoritative book by respected British naval historians. This includes: The Battle of the River Plate; The Battle of Taranto, The Battle of Matapan, The Sinking of the HMS Hood, The Sinking of the Bismarck, The Sinking of HMS Prince of Wales, The Sinking of the Repulse, The sinking of the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau, The Battle of the Coral Sea, The Battle of Midway, The Battle of the Barents Sea.,

Reprint of the fifth edition (first published in 9 volumes in 1954, edited by Blom, and then reprinted in 1961 with the supplementary 10th volume, here included) Hardcovers. Original blue buckram cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Top edges slightly foxed, one small tear at the tail of a spine professionally repaired, otherwise very good. A clean, tight set, with no inscriptions or notations. An attractive set of 'the bible' of all things musical, begun by Sir George Grove in the late 1870s, in four volumes, subsequently revised and expanded under the editorships of J.A. Fuller-Maitland and H.C. Coles, and here in this 'modern' form by Eric Blom (1888-1959), an English critic, scholar, author and music lexicographer. Blom was Danish by descent, Swiss by birth, and British by choice, domicile and naturalization. He was the chief music critic for years, of "The Birmingham Post" and "The Manchester Guardian". Poignantly his obiturary appears here in the tenth volume supplement, since he died before completing it, that being done ably by the associate editor, Denis Stevens. The heavy set is not suitable for an overseas mailing, but can be done (economically) by surface/sea mail, untracked, for $65 US. Australian mailing will cost approximately $30.
