is a key source for British maritime and military history. This
reissue is the first complete printed reproduction of what was the
most influential maritime publication of its day. The subjects
covered range from accounts of battles and lists of ships to
notices of promotions and marriages, courts martial and deaths, and
biographies, poetry and letters. Each volume also contains
engravings and charts relating to naval engagements and important
harbours around the world. Volume 15, published in 1806, contains
addenda to the biography of Lord Nelson published in Volume 14,
including an account of his last months and details of his funeral.
Biographies of William Dannett and Cuthbert, Lord Collingwood are
included, together with the sixth Report of the Commissioners of
Naval Inquiry and maps and descriptions of the Caribbean islands of
Guadeloupe and St Lucia.
