The Evolution of the Sailing Ship, 1250-1580 (Keynote Studies from the Mariner's Mirror)
Naval Institute Press 1/1/0001 0851776558 / 9780851776552 First Edition Hardcover New
0851776558 1996 Naval Institute Press. Fine/Fine. Brand New. This hardcover copy, in a new dustjacket, is in excellent condition. The text is unmarked/unread and the binding is sturdy. "The Mariner's Mirror", the journal of The Society for Nautical Research, first appeared in 1911. In its early pages, the founders of the Society published a mass of writing which laid the foundation for much of the maritime research which has been carried out in the last 80 years. The scarcity of these early volumes and wide variety of the material found in them has inspired the Society to edit a series of anthologies covering specific themes, and the first one to appear deals with the evolution of the sailing ship through the medieval and Renaissance periods." 100% customer satisfaction guaranteed.

"Access to space-based systems has radically changed naval warfare over the past three decades, yet until now no book has described what has happened. Space systems began as an essential support for strategic missiles such as Polaris. Now they form the basis for net-centric warfare. The current revolution in military affairs is largely an extension of the space-based naval warfare concepts developed since the late 1970s. It began with over-the-horizon missile targeting and then evolved to the outer air battle of the 1980s and to current concepts of littoral and deep-strike warfare." 100% customer satisfaction guaranteed.

"Anti-submarine warfare (ASW) plays an important part in 20th-century conflict. Countering the potent threat of nuclear-powered and conventional submarines, it deploys technology of a high order, and uses platforms, sensors and weapons which operate under, on and above the sea. But the potential of submarines for harm across a wide spectrum of peace and warfighting, ranging from strategic nuclear deterrence to special forces operations, is still enormous. Thus the efficacy and significance of ASW remains an important part of strategy, maritime technology and tactics." 100% customer satisfaction guaranteed.
