The Admiral Benbow |
Notes:
Admiral John Benbow was an English naval hero, a fighting sailor of ruthless methods but indomitable courage. In 1702, however, when Benbow engaged a French squadron off the Spanish main, other ships in his squadron failed to support him. Grieviously injured, Benbow fought on – but the French escaped and he succumbed to his wounds. When the story of his ‘Last Fight’ reached England; ‘Brave Benbow’ was elevated from national hero to national legend, his valour immortalized in broadsheet and folksong. Ships were named after him and Tennyson later fêted him in verse. For the very first time, Sam Willis tells the extraordinary story of Admiral Benbow through an age of dramatic change, from his birth under Cromwell’s Commonwealth; to service under the restored Stuart monarchy; to the Glorious Revolution of 1688; to the French wars of Louis XIV; and finally to the bitter betrayal of 1702. The Admiral Benbow covers all aspects of seventeenth century naval life in vivid detail, from strategy and tactics to health and discipline. | First Edition Details:

The Fighting Temeraire |
Notes:
.M.W. Turner's The Fighting Temeraire Tugged to her Last Berth to be Broken Up (1838) was his masterpiece. Sam Willis tells the real-life story behind this remarkable painting. The 98-gun Temeraire warship broke through the French and Spanish line directly astern of Nelson's flagship Victory during the Battle of Trafalgar (1805), saving Nelson at a crucial moment in the battle, and, in the words of John Ruskin, fought until her sides ran 'wet with the long runlets of English blood... those pale masts that stayed themselves up against the war-ruin, shaking out their ensigns through the thunder, till sail and ensign dropped.' It is a story that unites the art of war as practised by Nelson with the art of war as depicted by Turner and, as such, it ranges across an extensive period of Britain's cultural and military history in ways that other stories do not. The result is a detailed picture of British maritime power at two of its most significant peaks in the age of sail: the climaxes of both the Seven Years' War (1756-63) and the Napoleonic Wars (1798-1815). It covers every aspect of life in the sailing navy, with particular emphasis on amphibious warfare, disease, victualling, blockade, mutiny and, of course, fleet battle, for it was at Trafalgar that the Temeraire really won her fame. | First Edition Details:
