About the Book

Desde la Caída de Constantinopla y la Guerra de Flandes hasta la Segunda Guerra Mundial, conozca catorce desconocidas campañas navales de ámbito universal, que, a pesar de su trascendencia y marcar su época, suelen permanecer ignoradas o minusvaloradas. Un recorrido diferente por la historia naval, no a través de las clásicas batallas, sino de las otras que, por uno u otro motivo (investigación poco exhaustiva, pertenecer a períodos poco estudiados, ser extrañas en nuestro país o quedar ubicadas en épocas con otras más famosas) quedaron al margen, pero cuya relevancia se desvela sin más que repasar sus líneas. Antes del descubrimiento de América, resultan desconocidos los combates navales excluidos los de griegos y persas, cartagineses y romanos; el trabajo aporta los librados en la toma de Constantinopla (Estambul). Igualmente, es poco sabido que las guerras de Flandes tuvieron enfrentamientos navales como se desvela en el Puente de Farnesio. También que la suerte de Gibraltar se decidió en una batalla naval, o que el Brasil español del siglo XVII trajo un gran enfrentamiento entre galeones holandeses y españoles. Desconocidas son también batallas como Navarino o Lissa, imbricadas en el nacimiento de jóvenes naciones como las modernas Grecia e Italia. Remota parece la batalla del Yalú, decisiva para China y Japón, mientras que pocas veces se citan las victorias navales españolas de Cárdenas y Cienfuegos, durante el Desastre de 1898. La guerra ruso-japonesa de 1905 cuenta con una tercera batalla a añadir a las derrotas de mar Amarillo, Port Arthur y Tsushima, la de Ulsan a cargo de los legendarios cruceros de Vladivostok, casi nunca considerada.

Introducidos ya en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, nos adentraremos en nuevas perspectivas desmitificadoras que se ofrecen de la conquista de Narvik durante la campaña de Noruega, el combate del Río de la Plata y la larga pugna en las batallas de Guadalcanal. Mientras que pocas veces se encuentra una completa reseña de una brillante victoria naval como la de la isla Savo (tal vez porque vencieron los japoneses) ni de las míticas y sacrificadas hazañas del Tokio Express. Todo ello contiene esta obra cuya pretensión es la aportación de nuevos datos, visiones y perspectivas que enriquezcan clásicos esquemas de la historia naval.

A different tour of the naval history, not through the classic battles, but the others, for one reason or another (some thorough research, belonging to periods understudied be strange in our country or be located in times with other most famous) were on the sidelines, but whose relevance is revealed without more to go over their lines. Before the discovery of America, are unknown excluded the naval battles of Greeks and Persians, Carthaginians and Romans; It brings the delivered work in the capture of Constantinople (Istanbul). It is also little known that the wars of Flanders had naval clashes as disclosed in the Farnese Bridge. Also that the fate of Gibraltar was decided in a naval battle, or that the Spanish Brazil seventeenth century brought a major confrontation between Dutch and Spanish galleons. They are also unknown as Navarino battles or Lissa, embedded in the birth of modern young nations like Greece and Italy. Remote seems the Battle of Yalu, decisive for China and Japan, while seldom the Spanish naval victories Cardenas and Cienfuegos cited during the Disaster 1898. The Russo-Japanese war of 1905 has a third battle to add to the defeats Yellow sea, Port Arthur and Tsushima, the Ulsan cruises by legendary Vladivostok, almost never considered. Introduced already in the Second World War, we enter new perspectives offered demystifying the conquest of Narvik during the Norway campaign, the battle of the River Plate and the long struggle in the battles of Guadalcanal. While rarely you find a complete review of a brilliant naval victory of Savo Island (perhaps because they beat the Japanese) or the mythical exploits and sacrificed Tokyo Express. All this contains this work whose aim is the provision of new information, insights and perspectives that enrich classical schemes of naval history.
