Publisher Synopsis
'Milner's book ... will serve for many as the navy's "official history." ' -- John D. Harbron, Globe and Mail '[Canada's Navy] will long remain the standard account of how the Canadian navy was created, developed, and used ... Marked by breadth of learning, masterly analysis, and a generous scholarship, it is a model and an inspiration. Canadians, and naval historians around the world, are once again in Milner's debt.' -- Andrew Lambert, The International History Review 'This book, like the first edition, provides an outstanding narrative of the history of the Canadian Navy, and should hold a place of honour on every naval officer?s bookshelf.' -- Jurgen Duewel, Canadian Military Journal, vol10:03:2010 'This welcome new book is stimulating, authoritative, and current. Canada's Navy: The First Century is a great read.' -- Jan Drent, Maritime Affairs 'A delightful tour de force.' -- Ron Lowman, Toronto Star Read more...
