摘要

This new book by James Falkner has as its cover an evocative colour image of the attack on the galleons in Vigo Bay in 1702. The publisher's blurb declares it to be a 'major new study of the war that shaped eighteenth century Europe' and 'the first comprehensive history of the war to be published for ninety years'. However, anyone interested in this fascinating subject would expect much more than they find between the covers of the dust jacket. Falkner has written a dozen studies on Marlborough's military campaigns and the period of the War of the Spanish Succession. He excels, as he does in this book, with succinct and clearly written descriptions of military operations, and diplomacy. One must welcome this book, as we should for any study that can bring renewed and broader interest to this subject, but from the point of view of new research and scholarship there is much lacking. While what is written is clearly stated, there is not too much here that could not have been written 40 or 50 years ago.
机译:詹姆斯·福尔克纳(James Falkner)的这本新书的封面是令人回味的彩色图像,描绘了1702年对维哥湾大帆船的袭击。出版商的宣传宣称这是“塑造18世纪欧洲战争的重大新研究”第一次全面的战争史出版了九十年。但是,任何对这个引人入胜的主题感兴趣的人都期望得到比他们在防尘套的盖子之间发现的更多的东西。福克纳(Falkner)撰写了许多有关马尔堡(Marlborough)军事战役和西班牙继承战争时期的研究。正如他在本书中所做的那样,他擅长于简洁明了地描述军事行动和外交。必须欢迎这本书,因为我们应该进行任何能够使该学科引起新的和广泛的兴趣的研究,但是从新的研究和学术的角度来看,这是非常缺乏的。虽然已清楚说明了所写的内容,但这里并没有太多40或50年前写的东西。
