The Successors to Drake
The present work is designed as a sequel to Drake and the Tudor Navy (1898), to which it practically forms a third and concluding volume, carrying the reader through the period of hostilities with Spain which extended from the death of Drake in 1596 to the conclusion of the war at James I.’s accession. It is a period which, if we except the operations of Essex at Cádiz in 1596, has been much neglected by historians and as much misunderstood.

Some Principles of Maritime Strategy
Sir Julian Stafford Corbett (12 November 1854 at Walcot House, Kennington Road, Lambeth - 21 September 1922 at Manor Farm, Stopham, Pulborough, Sussex ) was a prominent British naval historian and geostrategist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, whose works helped shape the Royal Navy's reforms of that era. One of his most famous works is Some Principles of Maritime Strategy, which remains a classic among students of naval warfare. Corbett was a good friend and ally of naval reformer Admiral John "Jacky" Fisher, the First Sea Lord. He was chosen to write the official history of British Naval operations during World War I.

21st Century Corbett
21st Century Corbett is a collection of essays demonstrating the critical role Sir Julian Corbett played in the development of maritime strategy and sea power theory in the early twentieth century. His close connections with Mahan and Sims helped reinforce the trans-Atlantic axis of education and thinking on sea power. Corbett worked closely with First Sea Lord Admiral John Fisher (1841-1920) to enhance the strategic planning of the Royal Navy, and compiled the official history of the First World War.
