The naval arms trade of the period is a ripe subject for a book all of its own as sometimes commercial considerations were at odds with government policy which makes for some interesting possibilities.<br /><br />Needless to say this is a part of the overall project that I am really looking forward to!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-21776127728147605452011-05-05T20:41:05.288+01:002011-05-05T20:41:05.288+01:00David,
