Synopsis
This book asserts that Britain's naval supremacy is the cornerstone of the empire it has developed across the globe. The author, an active participant in the Navy League on Canada's west coast, begins by establishing a definition for "Empire" before presenting an insightful argument regarding the critical importance of the Royal Navy. The author elucidates on the origins of the British Empire, tracing its roots back to the acts of chivalry and self-sacrifice from which the Royal Navy grew, then emphasizes that this body has historically been the protector of fair play and ordered liberty. Through this analysis, the author makes the case that the self-governance enjoyed by the Empire's Dominions is founded on the security provided by British naval power. The author concludes with a special note to Canadians, who have not yet been asked to contribute to the maintenance of this force but who, as the largest Dominion, should logically lead the way in demonstrating their commitment to the strength and security of the Empire as a whole.
