This detailed technical guide to the gunboats of all the major navies of the war means that, for the first time, the story can be told.

ISBN: 9781782666905 / Angielski / Miękka / 518 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In fact, most governments have made the promotion of nuclear power's growth and global development a top priority. Throughout, they have insisted that the dangers of nuclear weapons proliferation are...

For millennia island nations have known that invasion would come from the sea and that the enemy would select the most suitable point of disembarkation-a safe bay or harbour, a wide estuary of a deeply penetrating river or a good sheltered beach.

Each later monarch of England added new defences-from castles to estuary chains-according to the dangers they... 'We will fight them on the beaches'
