“This book is a corrected and augmented version of one published in 1994. It might be thought that the events discussed about Chile’s naval history would have little or no significance to the development of the republic. But a closer look will allow us to conclude that, throughout the republican period, the Navy has contributed to national development well beyond the strict fulfilment of its duties in the field of defence.”
