"An amazing book and an ominous one: when Togo was born in 1847 Japan had nothing but primitive junks, not large enough to cross the ocean. To-day she is one of the greatest sea-powers in the world. Togo lived for the fleet-how he lived and how the fleet came to life is one and the same story." All books are individually described. Never ex-lib unless stated.
