Among other observations (largely on the comparison of this work with the Naval & Seaborne Trade official histories) Falls states: "Mr Hurd tells his epic story with skill & power, though he sometimes strays from the regular course of his narrative..." Very scarce: orig. blue cloth, gilt, Vol. I is ex-lib., little worn, sp. dull (as usual); Vols. II & III clean ex-lib., good set overall. See illustration on our website.
