Reviews

'Wisdom and War provides a well paced, detailed and interesting narrative of the 125-year history of one of the Royal Navy's best known training establishments, but it is also of wider interest, for throughout developments at Greenwich are carefully related to the wider naval, strategic, political and economic context.' International Journal of Maritime History '... a good overall historical summary for close study of the curriculum and doctrine taught at the single service college - good and bad - before closing.' The Northern Mariner
