In 1737, Blaise Ollivier, Master Shipwright at France's foremost Royal Dockyard. Brest, received instructions to undertake a secret mission to England and Holland, where he was to visit all the major naval dockyards and report on the way ships were built by Frances maritime rivals. On his return, after five months' absence, he drew up a report running to 360 manuscript pages and accompanied by 13 sheets of diagrams and plans, entitled Remarques sur la Marine des Anglois et des Hollandois faites sur les lieux en 1737 par le S'Ollivier constructeur des vaisseaux du Roi (Remarks on the Navies of the English and the Dutch made in their Dockyards in 1737 by M' Ollivier shipwright to the King). The report describes everything that Ollivier saw in the most minute detail, and makes recommendations as to whether the techniques should be imitated in the French dockyards. This book contains the fully annotated text of thai report (in both the original French and in translation), published for the first lime, to which this Introduction provides the background. The book also contains, in the Glossary of Shipbuilding Terms al the end. about 10% of a second Ollivier manuscript, entitled Traite de Consruction, but in fact an alphabetical dictionary of shipbuilding terminology and technology. Written in 1736, it contains nothing on foreign practices, but contains on the other hand as much or more detail on the French Navy of the same period as do the Remarques lor the English and Dutch Navies. Despite its alphabetical rather than thematic format, it repays careful reading. Taken together, the two manuscripts provide the most detailed analysis of the shipbuilding technologies of three of Europe's foremost maritime powers ever written...

Ollivier's secret mission lasted nearly five months, during which time he visited all the major naval dockyards of both country except Plymouth. At the conclusion he wrote a 360-page report entitled "Remarks on the navies of the English and the Dutch", discussing everything he had seen in meticulous details, evaluting English and Dutch practices and comparing them with techniques used in France, illustrating his findings with 13 sheets of drawings and plans.
