Description
Another fine piece of research by the Fevyer/Wilson team which has produced a fascinating history of the politics as well as the naval operations in the Gulf area immediately prior to and after the Great War. The medal rolls are given by ships – no less than 28 involved – and each ship’s specifications (type, displacement, dimensions and armament) are given. The selected despatches from the ships engaged and other correspondence are a high point in this excellent document illustrating the type of imperial policing carried out by the Royal Navy and Royal Indian Marine Service.
Postage & Packing £3.00. Overseas please enquire.
