Recenzii
'The editors should be commended for producing a valuable collection which has been meticulously referenced and cross-referenced to related volumes of documents. ... it is definitely a 'must have' for those researchers in the field as well as a useful addition to scholarly collections and libraries.' The Northern Mariner 'This attractively produced and carefully edited collection provides a wealth of material on Elizabethan naval administration. It is an admirable addition to the publications of the Navy Records Society; it will be of considerable value to naval and maritime historians for the evidence it provides of key aspects of procedure, organisation and personnel, and related matters concerning wages and shipping.' International Journal of Maritime History 'The first truly representative collection of archival documents relating to naval administration spanning the entirety of Elizabeth's reign. ... Elizabethan Naval Administration makes a significant contribution to the study of the Tudor Navy ... historians and sociologists of the maritime world will find the volume an indispensable addition to their reference collections.' Sixteenth Century Journal ’The volume is remarkable firstly for the range of archives from which it draws material together: not just The National Archives and the Pepys Library but also the Bodleian, the British Library and Hatfield House. There are careful explanations of how different records relate to each other and how they ended up where they now reside, including a helpful appendix on the documents surviving in the British Library, which illuminate the preparation of the Quarter Book...[There are] many attractions of this fine volume.’ Archives and Records

Descriere
The main component of the volume is the massively detailed Navy Treasurer's account for 1562-3 which is followed by and collated with the corresponding Exchequer Account. The documents illustrate just how efficiently the dockyards functioned. They were one of the great early Elizabethan achievements.
