Maintaining Naval Mastery 1815 - 1850 Summary: The Last Sailing Battlefleet: Maintaining Naval Mastery 1815-1850 is a study of the Royal Navy during the period between the end of the Napoleonic Wars (1815) and the widespread adoption of steam-powered battleships around 1850. Rather than portraying these decades as a period of decline, Andrew Lambert argues that they represented the peak of wooden sailing battlefleet development. The Royal Navy deliberately maintained overwhelming maritime superiority through advanced ship design, careful administration, and strategic planning. Lambert concludes that the Royal Navy's sailing battlefleet of 1815-1850 was the finest wooden battlefleet ever built. Its superiority rested on continuous innovation in design, construction, and administration, enabling Britain to maintain global maritime dominance until steam propulsion and iron construction ushered in a new era of naval warfare. This reinterpretation challenges the traditional view that the decades before steam were merely a stagnant transition period. Author: Andrew Lambert Publisher: Conway Maritime Press.
