Book The Naval Miscellany  Vol  2  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Naval Miscellany Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by John Knox Laughton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Miscellany, Vol. 2 It will be seen that in the first two articles, dating from the early sixteenth century, the custom Of the Society has been departed from and the original spelling has been preserved. Where so many of the words and phrases are Obsolete and their meaning uncertain, it would have been practically impossible to do otherwise: to attempt it, even, would have been incongruous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Miscellany, Vol. 1 In the course of the last few years I have received from different quarters and have collected a variety of documents, individually too short for a volume, and yet of such interest as to render it very desirable to lay them before the Society. In considering how best to do this, the Council resolved that they would from time to time issue a miscellaneous volume of such papers. This is the first. In preparing the several items of it for the press, I have had the able assistance of Mr. Corbett, who, fresh from his studies of Drake and Drake's successors, took charge of the 'Voyage to Cadiz, ' which, by itself, with its unique map and representations of early divisional flags, would make the volume noteworthy. For the editing of the other papers I am personally responsible, though I have unsparingly taxed the assistance of many friends to whom I have referred points of difficulty. To them and to the owners of the papers I return my warmest thanks for the gift - not to me, but to the Society, and through it to the country.

  • Author : Susan Rose
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2020-11-26
  • ISBN : 1000341755
  • Pages : 451 pages

Download or read book The Naval Miscellany written by Susan Rose and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This seventh volume of Naval Miscellany contains documents which range in date from the late thirteenth century to the Korean War. They illustrate the many different ways in which the naval forces of the crown have served the realm. Topics covered include the role of ships in campaigns against Scotland under Edward I and Edward VI, the protection of the Iceland fishery in the days of the Commonwealth government, and the operation of prize courts during the wars against France in the eighteenth century. Moving on to the nineteenth century, the supply of timber to the Royal Navy is examined, while two contributions deal with surveying off the west coast of Africa and another prints a diary kept by a member of the Naval Brigade operating onshore in the Zulu War. The most recent contributions deal with the origins and development of the Royal Australian Navy up to the 1950s. Two more controversial subjects are also included; the first gives more information about the storage of cordite on battle cruisers in 1916 and the battle of Jutland; the second documents the relief of Admiral North from Gibraltar in 1940. There is something here for every enthusiast for naval history and for all students of the relevant periods.

Mr. Lawrence has not been actually drunk for several days. Mary's engagement at the theatre is just over, and her salary was paid this morning. This treat is the result thereof. To-morrow they are to sail for Southampton. A programme of about the right number of years ago tells us that boxes are thirty reals, sillones (arm-chairs) are seven reals.

I. P. Xxi.) which came to light too late to be included in the first volume. They should therefore be read with those contained in Part VII. They will also be found to throw light on Part VIII, as showing why it was that the arrangements for intercepting Hoche's expedition to Ireland were so seriously confused by the apprehension that his objective might be Portugal.

They were besides exceedingly anxious to shew their young skipper their gratitude for their release from the hands of a set of ruthless ruffians, who, when infuriated by drink, would doubtless have killed most of them, or at least condemned them to severe sufferings.
