Through the years, many historians have placed the blame for the Royal Navy's American Revolution defeat at Yorktown squarely on the shoulders of Admiral Samuel Hood. In this detailed history of Hood's career, Colin Pengelly engages with the details of the Yorktown battle to discover how Hood escaped criticism and blame during his lifetime and rose to the post of Admiral of the Mediterranean Fleet.
