Historical Background: After the "Peace of Utrecht" in 1714, friction between Britain and Bourbon Family Compact nations of France and Spain continued intermittently until 1739. Britain was determined to open up Spanish America and the West Indies to trade, and Spain was equally determined to prevent this, claiming a right of search on the high seas which culminated in the War of Jenkins' Ear in 1739. This continued into the war of the Austrian Succession, when France, over-running the Austrian Netherlands, threatened an invasion of the England shore and Britain declared war in 1744. The struggle lasted with short intervals until 1815, and was the first of the great wars in modern history to be fought in all four quarters of the globe, in the Americas, Canada, the West Indies, West Africa, India and Europe. By 1747, France had captured Madras; and Britain, Louisberg, on Cape Breton Island, commanding the mouth of St. Lawrence. The spoils of war were fairly even, when two sea battles off the Bay of Biscay changed the whole course of the struggle. The importance of sea power was not realised until later on when France was unable to hold her conquests because of the lack of it, and Britain took a long time to realise the advantage of it, but eventually command of the seas, which Britain won after two naval engagements in 1747, established her as the chief colonial power in the world, and, with it, a vast extension of her raw materials, industry, commerce, and wealth. This fabulous book is wonderful reminder of what went on in that period of time on the high seas. Just a wonderful collection of naval prints.
