Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Naval Administration and Warfare: Some General Principles; With Other Essays The somewhat miscellaneous appearance attaching to the collection of articles herein republished requires from the author the remark that he thinks they will be found, by discriminating readers, to possess in common one characteristic, which however is probably not so immediately obvious as to dispense with indication. The attempt in them has been in all cases to omit details to the utmost possible, in order that attention may fasten at once more readily and more I certainly upon general principles. The paper on Subordination in Historical Treatment, for instance, is throughout a plea for consideration towards general readers, who have not the time even to read understandingly the mass of detail with which historians are prone now to encumber their narrative. Much less can they work out for themselves the leading features, the real determinative lines, which become buried under the I accumulation of incidents, like the outlines of an ancient city hidden under the ruin of its buildings.
