"Seekriege und Seekriegswesen, Zweiter Band" by Rudolph Rittmeyer is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the development of naval warfare, particularly focusing on major naval conflicts during the 17th and 18th centuries, with a specific emphasis on the period from 1739 to 1793.

exploration of maritime history in this era. The opening of this second volume begins with a preface where Rittmeyer explains his methodologies for documenting naval history. He emphasizes the importance of utilizing the best sources from different countries to create a balanced account of naval operations. The text sets the stage for the exploration of key developments in naval strategy and tactics, as well as the geopolitical underpinnings of major conflicts such as the Anglo-Spanish War and the Seven Years' War.
