CSS Alabama Vs USS Kearsarge: Cherbourg 1864
ISBN: 9781849084925 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. By the time of American Civil War things had changed from the Age of Fighting Sail - steam power and explosive shells were transforming naval warfare. Iron was beginning to supplant wood. Britain had just finished HMS Warrior, an iron-hulled warship and coastal ironclads dominated the waters off the United States. The changes meant that ships sank, during battles instead of afterwards. The fights were no less bloody, but in addition to flying splinters, a host of other dangers were added - burst steam boilers, fire due to exploding shells, and the burst from the shells themselves. But,... By the time of American Civil War things had changed from the Age of Fighting Sail - steam power and explosive shells were transforming naval warfa... |

Ships of the American Revolutionary Navy
ISBN: 9781846034459 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this title, Mark Lardas explores the origins of American warships, primarily light and medium frigates, built for the Continental Navy during the years 1776-1783. This was the first navy of the United States and much of the fleet was comprised of ships that had been modified from existing vessels, converted into warships to provide a crucial service during the American Revolutionary War. Despite having no real funding, this unique fleet had a surprising amount of success against the might of the Royal Navy, and this title discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each design, and the...

Shenandoah 1864: Sheridan's Valley Campaign
ISBN: 9781472804839 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Virginia's Shenandoah Valley in 1864 was the scene of one of the most crucial campaigns of the Civil War. The outcome of the fighting there would have consequences that stretched far outside the valley to help decide the fate of the nation. In 1864 the Union Army's new commander, Ulysses Grant, created the Union's first cohesive strategy for conquering the Confederacy. One of his key objectives was to control the Shenandoah Valley. The valley shielded the Confederacy, served as the bread basket for Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, and provided remounts for Confederate cavalry. When...

Port of Houston
ISBN: 9781531675516 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. To reach the Port of Houston's Turning Basin, a ship must travel 50 miles along a narrow and twisting channel that passes through Galveston Bay, the San Jacinto River, and Buffalo Bayou. Despite this improbable location, Houston has the world's largest landlocked port. Measured by annual tonnage shipped, the Port of Houston is the second-largest port in the United States. Its docks, wharves, and facilities cover more than 25 miles. The port starts its second century as a seaport in 2014. Its transformation from a crowded river port into an industrial giant is fascinating. It is a tale of...

Rabaul 1943-44: Reducing Japan's Great Island Fortress
ISBN: 9781472822444 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In 1942, the massive Japanese naval base and airfield at Rabaul was a fortress standing in the Allies' path to Tokyo. It was impossible to seize Rabaul, or starve the 100,000-strong garrison out. Instead the US began an innovative, hard-fought two-year air campaign to draw its teeth, and allow them to bypass the island completely. The struggle decided more than the fate of Rabaul. If successful, the Allies would demonstrate a new form of warfare, where air power, with a judicious use of naval and land forces, would eliminate the need to occupy a ground objective in order to control...

American Light and Medium Frigates, 1794-1836
ISBN: 9781846032660 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The "Original Six" frigates were commissioned by the new-born US Navy at a staggering cost of $688,888.82. Designed to be light and fast, these warships enabled America to project its power across the globe. Among the ships Mark Lardas examines is USS Constellation: the first ship to be commissioned by the United States Navy, and also the first ship to engage and capture an enemy vessel, the French L'Insurgente - this engagement is vividly portrayed in original color artwork. The fascinating history of the USS Chesapeake is also brought to life through the dramatic account one of the...
