The Naval Miscellany: Volume VIII (Navy Records Society Publications)

Brian Vale
4.9/5 (14677 ratings)
Description:The contents of this, the eighth of the Navy Records Society's Miscellany series, chronicles the activities and adventures of the Royal Navy, its officials, its officers and its men - both in British employment and out of it - over a period of some six hundred years. Ranging from the reign of Edward III to that of Edward VIII, this volume covers subjects as diverse as the accounts of Thomas de Snetesham, Clerk of the King's ships in the mid-14th century, the last campaign of the Mary Rose in 1545, Sir John Borlase Warren and the blockades of the United States in the War of 1812 through to the Royal Navy's role in escorting Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia into exile in 1936. The roles of mid-ranking officers can be appreciated from the involvement of Captain Archibald Kennedy in the Stamp Act crisis in New York and off America's eastern seaboard in 1765, while the part played by former Royal Navy officers in the wars in South America is exemplified by the 1826 journal of Captain John Pascoe Grenfell during his service in the Brazilian Navy in the war against Argentina. The response of Lord Northbrook, the First Lord of the Admiralty, to the famous criticism of the government by William Stead in The Pall Mall Gazette in 1885 is reproduced as is James Ramsay's notable essay on the duty and qualifications of a sea officer in 1780. Encompassing a broad scope of operations, naval policy and logistics this volume highlights key episodes from the rich tapestry of Britain's naval history.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
