内容简介：
Jeremy Black provides an excellent discussion of Britain's land and naval power, discussing the nation's strengths and weaknesses and the many wars and diplomatic crises of the period. Black convincing argues that Britain's rise to power was not preordained and cites a number of potential disasters. Although a great strength, Britain's financial system was also a vulnerability. Use of mercenaries and subsidy treaties was also a double edged sword, and the Jacobites were always a real threat to the regime. Refreshingly, he covers interesting but now obscure events like the 1770s Falklands squabble and the Nootka Sound incident, but his accounts of wars in India are a little confusing.
