Descripción

5 vols., 8vo., First Edition, with frontispieces, coloured plates, and photographs, illustrations and maps in the text; cloth (black/red/green/red/green respectively), gilt backs, a fine set in unclipped dustwrapper. Arguably Woodman's magnum opus and certainly the first complete history of Britain's merchant service. The set comprises Vol. 1: Neptune's Trident. Spices and Slaves, 1500-1807 (2008); Vol. 2: Britannia's Realm. In Support of the State, 1763-1815 (2009); Vol. 3: Masters under God. Makers of Empire, 1816-1884 (2009); Vol. 4: More Days, More Dollars. The Universal Bucket Chain, 1885-1920 (2010); Vol. 5: Fiddler's Green. The Great Squandering, 1921-2010 (2010). COMPLETE SETS ARE EXTREMELY SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION.
