Attack and Defense of Fortified Harbors is a historical book written by Arthur Penrhyn Stanley Hyde and published in 1916. The book provides a detailed account of the strategies and tactics employed in the attack and defense of fortified harbors throughout history, with a particular focus on the 19th and early 20th centuries. Hyde draws on a variety of sources, including military manuals, official reports, and personal accounts, to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject matter. He covers a wide range of topics, including the construction and design of harbor defenses, the use of artillery and mines, the role of naval and land forces, and the impact of technological advancements on harbor defense.The book is divided into two main sections: the first focuses on the attack of fortified harbors, while the second covers their defense. In each section, Hyde provides detailed descriptions of historical battles and sieges, including the Siege of Sevastopol during the Crimean War and the Battle of Port Arthur during the Russo-Japanese War.Overall, Attack and Defense of Fortified Harbors is a valuable resource for military historians, scholars, and enthusiasts interested in the history of naval warfare and harbor defense.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
