Description

First Published in 2005. The authors of this book have tried to portray, in outline, the background of trade against which the Navy of Nelson's time had to operate. The Tarde Winds is the title they have chosen and the book should serve to remind us of many physical facts which then dominated the strategy both of trade and war-the Trade Winds themselves being not the least of them.
