Coast defense is integral to naval warfare as it prevents an enemy fleet from landing troops or bombarding cities along the coast. Coast defense fortifications are not intended to defend against an entire fleet but should be powerful enough to prevent any single ship from approaching the coast. The author advocates for the use of powerful and well-protected artillery batteries, either in the form of revolving turrets or casemates, to fulfill this role. The construction and armament of these batteries, however, is a significant undertaking that requires substantial investment and time. Nevertheless, such investment is crucial for nations seeking to protect their shores and their naval assets from attack. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
