What is British Admirals of the Eighteenth Century : Tactics in Battle about?

John Creswells View Of The Problems Of Eighteenth Century Naval Warfare Differs In Two Importnant Aspects From Othordox Opinions Of The Last Eighty Or Ninety Years. He Shows The Belief That The Fighting Instructions Of The Eighteenth Century Were Admiralty Orders Which Cramped The Intitiative Of Admirals Has Been Disproved By Documentary Evidence; And He Argues That A Study Of The Most Important Sea Battles Of The Eighteenth Century Indicates That The View Of Sea Tactics Should Always Be Based On Principles Which Have Been Accepted As Aximaticin Land Warfare Appears To Have Been Misguided. Bibliography: P. 257-259.
