Anotácia knihy

During the French Revolutionary War the Channel Fleet played the crucial role of defending Britain from invasion, defending Britain's incoming and outgoing trade through the Channel and Western approaches, and preventing the French Brest Fleet from setting forth on raids and expeditions. This text presents documents that reveal the evolution of the role of the Channel Fleet during the war and focuses on the blockade of Brest. The book shows how the blockade developed and tightened through the increased control of the Admiralty. It also reveals the political conflict between the Commanders-in-Chief and the Admiralty, the logistical demands that had to be met and the response of the Admiralty and fleet officers to the Spithead Mutiny. The book, above all, reveals the response of the Fleet to the challenges of the French in their sequence of break-outs, and the health problems suffered by the seamen.
