Soon after the signing in January 1972 of Britain's Treaty of
Acccession to the European Community, Sir Con O'Neill, a key figure
in the events leading to its successful conclusion, was
commissioned by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to write an
internal history of the preceding negotiations.
His account provides a detailed analysis of negotiations which had
an impact on Britain's relations with its European neighbours, and
insights into the processes of multilateral diplomacy.
Originally published in 1914, this book uses the reports of Courts
Martial to provide a description of conditions in the British Navy
from 1680 down to the end of the Napoleonic Wars. Through carefully
selected quotations and rigorous analysis, the text reveals the
development of a coherent system of justice within the Navy, one
which was instrumental in its progressive modernization.
Illustrations are provided, including a page of text and signatures
from a report of Court Martial in 1694. This is a highly
informative volume that will be of value to anyone with an interest
in naval history.
