Listened to this on audible while moving. A comprehensive history of the British navy from the time of Hawkins and Drake to the end of the Falklands War. In many ways a good book, I only found the end jarring where the author bemoaned the loss of British sea power; which in its own way is an understandable sentiment, but seems to deny the realities of two world wars and the loss of empire.
