Bringing naval and military campaigns together, this book demonstrates the sheer scale and reach of Britains power during an intense phase of warfare from 1790 to 1830. The book also considers the impact of this period of warfare on the British state, showing how, at the national level, Britain became both the worlds leading commercial country whilst operating as a global military and naval power.
