A Far-Flung Gamble: Havana 1762: Raid

Autor David Greentree Ilustrat de Donato Spedaliere, Giuseppe Rava, Mariusz Kozik
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 oct 2010
At the height of the Seven Years' War, Great Britain made an audacious strike at the heart of Spanish colonial power in the Caribbean.

Gathering troops from bases in Britain and Canada and sailing across the Atlantic in secrecy was an incredible feat. The raid on Havana took Spanish colonial forces completely by surprise and following vicious fighting, the city defences at El Moro collapsed. Havana, the jewel in the Spanish colonial crown, now belonged to Britain.

This is the daring story of the raid that influenced British military policy for centuries as the true potential of amphibious warfare was realized.
