The Seven Years War (1756-63) was the most successful military
affair in British History, as the Royal Navy triumphantly asserted
its supremacy over France and Spain en route to its conquering of a
vast overseas empire. This key volume describes the amphibious
British war machine in its first major display of strength,
chronicling it from the organization of its shipping to its major
operations at sea, and the 1762 Havana expedition in particular.
Demonstrating that the tide of British victories would have been
impossible without a sophisticated logistics operation
headquartered in and off the coasts of Europe and North America,
author David Syrett then places this analysis in a comparative
framework--evaluating the operations in relation to the British
Navy's next major test, the triumph and failures of the American
Revolutionary War.
