| Summary | "Deeds that Won the Empire" by W. H. Fitchett is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work captures significant battles and events that shaped the British Empire, emphasizing the valor and heroism displayed during these monumental struggles. Readers can expect a collection of detailed narratives about various military engagements and the leaders who played pivotal roles in expanding British influence. The opening of the book sets a reflective tone, expressing the intent to honor patriotism through recounting tales of triumph and bravery rather than glorifying war itself. Fitchett introduces us to a narrative structure that details several key battles, starting with a vivid portrayal of the battle off Cape St. Vincent in the late 18th century. The description immerses readers in the tension and strategies at play, particularly highlighting Admiral Jervis and Nelson's tactical ingenuity in confronting a larger Spanish fleet. This opening portion thus promises an engaging blend of historical accuracy and dramatic storytelling, aimed at rekindling appreciation for the rich military heritage of the British Empire.
