| Abstract
|
:
|
In the Renaissance European states developed standing navies. They were the product of changes over the preceding centuries in politics, technology and thinking about sea power. The fourteen authors from Europe and North America trace the forms of war at sea during the Middle Ages and show how changes in the period served as sources for the golden era of naval conflict in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
