A propos de cet article

Description :

52pp. Modern black cloth boards, lettered in gilt to spine. Bookplate of D. M. Fyffe to FEP, head of text-block shaved with loss to first word of title and running-titles throughout. The List of the Royal Navy was produced monthly by David Steel (1763-1803), nautical bookseller extraordinaire, and included intelligence on the most recent ships lost and captured. Relatively ephemeral in nature, few have survived. Steel was the author of The Shipmaster's Assistant and Owner's Manual (London, 1788) and assisted his father, also a bookseller, in the compilation of The Elements and Practice of Rigging and Seamanship (London, 1794). Upon Steel's death, his wife Penelope continued to manage the business until the firm went bankrupt in 1819. This edition, printed in the early stages of the Peninsular War, a time of British naval dominance, notably records Captain Michael Seymourâ s command of the HMS Amythyst, the vessel which would be central to the action of 10 November 1808, which saw French forces once more defeated at sea.
