|summary=Naval history seems such a rarefied subject that one might imagine this book having limited appeal. But Willis' account of this tremendous but inconclusive sea battle not only dynamical recreates the events and atmosphere of the day but clearly and dramatically puts everything in vivid context. The book becomes a classic, exploring Man's reasons for warfare, and his reactions to its outcomes.
