Please feel free to inquire as to particulars . In the 1870s Laughton turned more and more to teaching and lecturing on history, delivering a now famous lecture to the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) in 1874 on the importance of actually analysing historical events, rather than merely reporting events chronologically. This was a new idea at the time and would not have been seen then as stating the obvious, as perhaps it would today. With this new approach, Laughton 'acted as a catalyst for the entire intellectual development' of naval history as an independent discipline. Laughton's contributions to naval history were largely forgotten until the pioneering work by Canadian naval historian Donald Mackenzie Schurman The Education of a Navy: The Development of British Naval Strategic Thought, 18671914 (1965) resurrected his memory. Professor Andrew Lambert has since added to this with a work, The Foundations of Naval History: John Knox Laughton, the Royal Navy and the Historical Profession. In exceptionally good condition.…

" 'Ship' brings together 360 of the most celebrated ships in history and fiction in one stylishly produced volume. Each has its unique tale to tell, the dramatic stories immortalized in evocative artworks or documented in startling photography. Themes include exploration and scientific discovery, mutiny and piracy; shipwreck, cannibalism and survival. Ships that excelled in battle or were lost in devastating circumstances are represented, along with those that heralded revolutionary developments in maritime and naval architecture. International in scope, the book uses a signature image of each ship as a starting point with explanatory text from experts in the fields of sailing warships, battleships, ancient and medieval vessels, expeditionary ships, liners and famous literary ships. While each has a fascinating story to tell, together they make up not just a history of the ship, but also of human progress, imagination and tragedy."(Einbandtext).
