- W4321637816 abstract "One of the major concerns that activated Sir James Graham in the midst of the Crimean War was that the major naval threat to Britain came, not from Russia with whom the country was then at war, but from France, its temporary ally. In the 1840s French naval power and inventiveness set the pace in a new arms race. It was the French who built and launched the first screw battleship, Napoleon; during the war French naval architects invented the floating battery, which seemed to solve the old problem of conducting a safe and effective shore bombardment from warships; a great new naval base was developed at Cherbourg, facing Portsmouth and Plymouth, and implicitly challenging British control of the Channel; in 1858 the architect of the Napoleon, Stanislas Dupuy de Lôme, designed and built the first ironclad frigate, Gloire. In each case the French innovation was quickly followed by the British, who first copied the new ship, then rapidly outbuilt the French. But it was a naval arms race, with the usual characteristics of espionage, great expense and nationalism tinged with fear. The 1850s was the decade of the Crimean War, but it was also in time of repeated panics over the apparent French threat." @default.
