Letters of Admiral of the Fleet The Earl of St. Vincent: 1801-1804, Vol. I de David Bonner Smith

Letters of Admiral of the Fleet The Earl of St. Vincent: 1801-1804, Vol. I

Autor David Bonner Smith
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 apr 2019
These volumes present letters and other documents of St Vincent’s period as First Lord of the Admiralty, the most controversial and politically-heated of any during the time of the sailing navy. They are taken from his out-letter books, and do not include the replies.
Unusually for Society volumes, the editor selected only a part of each letter for publication, but such severe editing does not entirely muffle the Earl’s spiky and forceful turn of phrase.
This volume covers the first year of St Vincent’s time at the Admiralty, 1801.

Notă biografică

David Bonner-Smith was Admiralty Librarian, joining the library staff in March 1911. He was made deputy librarian on the death of W.G. Perrin in 1931, and appointed to the chief post in March 1932. He retired in May 1949 at the age of 60. It was said of him that he knew every one of the 100,000 books in the library, but was also familiar with all their contents. It is certain that he could direct students and enquirers to whatever reference they needed. He was editor of The Mariner’s Mirror from 1932 to 1939.
