This is the second title in the new "Essential Bibliography" series: each volume features an essay by a noted scholar on an important issue or period in military history, and a complete bibliography for the subject. Each book is an all-in-one research tool for librarians, researchers and readers with a professional or hobbyist interest in pursuing further studies.This volume traces the demise of the Ottoman Turks, the rise of Russian power and Britain's maritime supremacy. The American Revolution inspired similar events in France and elsewhere that changed the face of European history, leading to the Napoleonic Wars.
