Blue-Water Empire is Robert Holland’s magnificent narrative of Britain’s military and cultural ties with the Mediterranean Sea, in the style of the epic naval histories of N. A. M. Rodger. Britain has been a major presence in the Mediterranean from the Battle of the Nile to the end of empire, as both a military and a colonizing force on the islands and coastlines of the sea. Robert Holland traces the fascinating story of that presence, from its legacies in culture, language, and law to the Mediterranean’s own influence on Britain. Evoking the conflicts and contrasts between British and local societies caught up in dramatic events, as well as their mutual resilience under pressure, Blue-Water Empire charts with vigor, flair, and clarity the British experience in the Mediterranean in the age of empire.
