{"product_id":"9781108054201","title":"Sea-Power : And Other Studies (Cambridge Library Collection - Naval and Military History)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA naval officer from a generation that could spend an average of between 250 and 300 days a year at sea, Sir Cyprian Bridge (1839–1924) used this extensive experience and the knowledge he gained from wide reading to become a highly respected commander, firm in his beliefs and unafraid to voice them. In retirement he became a vocal critic of the drive to build bigger ships, believing that hardware should be subordinate to tactics. A regular contributor to newspapers, he wrote articles on naval history, tactics and strategy. This collection of articles was published in 1910, and includes his well-known paper, first delivered in 1902, setting out the difficulties in maintaining supplies and communications with a fleet based far from home. This work remains relevant to naval historians, and to those interested in how Britain maintained her maritime supremacy into the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48726944776427,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":86.06,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781108054201-1.jpg?v=1781655330","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781108054201","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
