Redford, Duncan, author. The Royal Navy : a history since 1900 / Duncan Redford and Philip D. Grove. London ; New York, New York : I.B. Tauris, [2014] 2014 1 online resource (xvi, 363 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates) : illustrations, maps. text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier History of the Royal Navy series Published in association with the National Museum of the Royal Navy. Includes bibliographical references. Since 1900, the Royal Navy has seen vast operational changes. This book tells the story, not just of victory and defeat, but also of how the Navy has adjusted to a century of rapid technological and social change. The extensive reforms made by Admiral Fisher at the dawn of the twentieth century saw the navy's nineteenth-century wooden fleet replaced with the latest modern technology - battleships (including the iconic dreadnoughts), aircraft carriers and submarines. In World War I and World War II, the navy played a central role, with unrestricted submarine warfare and supply blockades becoming an integral part of combat. However it was the development of nuclear and missile technology during the Cold War era which drastically changed the face of naval warfare - today the navy can launch sea-based strikes across thousands of miles to reach targets deep inland. This book places the wars and battles fought by the navy - from Jutland to the Falklands - within a wider context, looking at political, economic, social and cultural issues, as well as providing a thorough operational history.
