Description:
McGill-Queen's University Press, Kingston, ON 1987, first edition, xiv, 285 p., includes index and notes; decorated boards, fine. This work presents a sharply detailed picture of an institution caught between its Colbertain legacy of organization and role and contemporary challenges arising from overseas developments and imperial rivalry. James Pritchard analyses the changes that occurred in naval organizations and administration in the years between the end of the War of Austrian Succession and the conclusion of the Seven Years' War. During this time the French navy was reorganized, rebuilt, and fought a major war in which it was annihilated and its officer corps militarily humiliated. Yet this period also established the conditions that made it possible for the navy to become the major arm of French foreign policy for the only time in French history.

Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards clean with no wear present. Pritchard's chief concern is to explain why Bourbon France, the richest and most poewerful state in Europe in the middle of the eighteenth century, failed to exercise its power at sea. Through a close examination of naval organization -- the secretaries of state for the navy, central bureaus, officers of the sword and pen, seamen, arsenals, workers, probems of shipbuilding, ordnance production and material acquisition, and finances -- he shows the navy as both an institution embedded in society and an instrument of government. The tensions arising from the contradiction between an institution composed of individuals who sought to advance their own and group interests and an instrument that existed to…
