Synopsis "Price of Admiralty: The Evolution of Naval Warfare "

Military historian John Keegan’s gripping history of naval warfare’s evolution. In The Price of Admirality, leading military historian John Keegan illuminates the history of naval combat by expertly dissecting four landmark sea battles, each featuring a different type of warship: the Battle of Trafalgar, the Battle of Jutland in World War I, the Battle of Midway in World War II, and the long and arduous Battle of the Atlantic. “The best military historian of our generation.”—Tom Clancy “The Price of Admirality stands alongside Mr. Keegan’s earlier works in its power to impart both the big and little pictures of war.”—The New York Times

No era la edición que aparece en la fotografía, pareciera que fuera, incluso, un texto pirateado. En todo caso lo necesito para mi tesis de Magister, pero para una próxima oportunidad podrían poner más atención en la edición que uno está comprando, porque a veces tienen características especiales.
