Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Sir John Colomb, who believed that the best way to secure the union of the British Empire was through Imperial Defence. Sir John Colomb is recognized as a prescient man whose beliefs and theories about sea power and striking power to reinforce it shaped the modern principles of naval and military thought. While not claiming that Sir John Colomb's efforts were single-handedly responsible for the general acceptance of these principles, the author asserts that he undoubtedly contributed in no small degree to that end. Throughout his public life, Sir John Colomb insisted on the necessity of sea power, with striking power to reinforce it. He believed that, by working together, the British Empire could be more than the sum of its parts. His tireless efforts helped to clear away the mists of uncertainty, and this book is a tribute to his work, since it is impossible to overstate the debt which the Empire owes to his efforts. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
