First published in London in 1769, this naval encyclopaedia quickly became the classic handbook for all British naval officers. Expanded many times up to 1830, it is not only a reference work for nautical and technical questions of the navy, but also provides information on the construction and equipment of sailing ships as well as their use as instruments of war. With illustrations.
