Book Synopsis
The Trafalgar Chronicle is the publication of choice for new, scholarly research about the Georgian Navy, sometimes called Nelson's Navy'; the journal's scope, however, includes all the sailing navies of the period 1714 to 1837.This year's volume includes three articles on highly original topics. First, an analysis of the various swords the Duke of Clarence gave as gifts to Royal Navy officers. Second, is a deeply researched piece into early nineteenth-century court records to document the many incarnations of a Royal Navy schooner, Whiting, which, after capture by a French privateer in the War of 1812, became, herself, a privateer and a pirate ship. The last of three articles in this section gives an analysis of what Nelson thought of privateers, especially after the French xebec L'Esperance took his cutter Swift as a prize.To recognise the 500th anniversary of the founding of the Swedish Navy, there are included three articles from a new compilation The Baltic Cauldron, a collection
