Omtale

The Naval Chronicle, published in 40 volumes between 1799 and 1818, is a key source for British maritime and military history. Volume 10 (1803) covers the resumption of the war with France. Despite enormous sums being spent on the Navy, losses were high, and profiteering by naval suppliers was suspected.
