In a cunning naval offensive, the British fleet under Admiral Edward Hawke intercepted French ships on their way to rendezvous with invasion troopships gathered at the mouth of the Loire. Unfairly overlook in history books, the Battle of Quiberon Bay not only spoiled the planned French invasion, but also established British naval dominance. Once under attack, the French changed course for Quiberon Bay, assuming the British would not follow them among its treacherous shoals in stormy weather. Yet Hawke pursued them under full sail. The French ships were destroyed, captured, run aground or scatteredwhile the British only suffered two ships run aground. In this insightful narrative, Nicholas Tracy studies the battle, its strategic consequences, and its effect on the war for North America....3695826The Battle of Quiberon Bay, 1759148164https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-battle-of-quiberon-bay-1759-9781844681662/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2593768/4c587011-3918-4c67-9c03-c7a46a245d27.jpg?v=638384186681100000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20209781844681662_W3siaWQiOiI1MDczNWIzYy02Y2M4LTQwYzktYWYxNC0yZDg4MTdjNTFiYTMiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjE2NCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjE2LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjE0OCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDctMTlUMDQ6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781844681662_This authoritative history chronicles the Royal Navys decisive yet little-known victory over the French during the Seven Years War.In the mid-18th century, with virtually no regular troops at home, Britain was especially vulnerable to the immanent threat of French invasion.
