    A very interesting introduction to what should be an informative, and well illustrated series of articles Jason.
    It is also interesting to get an American perspective on the war, even if some of the conclusions are in need of expanding which I'm sure will be done in the full series. From my point of view the most interesting part is the illustrations which have not been seen by myself previously.
    Well done again for dredging up this very useful programme.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Yeah, the nationalism is a bit obnoxious, but the following episodes are pretty informative.
