The Bombay country ships
1790
-1833
"In this book, for the first time, the privately owned merchant ships of Bombay are described in detail. Owned by Indians and English, often in partnership, officered, in the first part of the period, by Europeans with Asian crews and licensed to trade east of the Cape of Good Hope, they were of vital importance to the financial stability of the East India Company's operations in China. The story has been salvaged from references in the Company's records, private papers and newspapers, with frequent quotations to give colour to the period. Ships and their tonnage are listed and their trade assessed. Where possible it shows the degree of Indian and European participation; it not only makes an interesting contribution to maritime studies but fills a gap in the economic and social history of both countries."--Provided by the publisher.

Boy seaman R N : the true story
1790
to 1976
"A timely publication in that, until now, there has been no description or information about this element of the Royal Navy. The trials, tribulations, pleasures and contributions of these young lads have ever been a behind-the-scenes aspect of the Senior Service. Prior to development of organised training, young men choosing a career in the Navy served as "cabin boys". In 1790 a more structured form of training was established and these young men served on wooden vessels. Finally in 1985 HMS Ganges was the first of seven Boys Training Shore Establishments opened capable of training up to 2000 boys at a time."--Provided by the publisher.
