John Scott : Nelson's secretary and friend, 1764-
1805
/ a personal account by John Maynard
"Scott may be known for his death on the Victory at Trafalgar, but his remarkable life also deserves to be known. Born in 1764 where the Spey runs into the Moray Firth, the son of a tenant farmer on the Gordon Estate, he moved to London and gained business experience before entering the Navy as a purser in 1789. Progressing from modest sloops to major ships, he also served as secretary to three different Admirals, winning their trust and affection, before joining the Victory as Nelson?s secretary in 1803. His letters to his wife Charlotte show his deep affection for his family, as well as revealing insights into the way Nelson won the hearts and loyalty of those who served under him. This story is both heartwarming and heartbreaking."

letters of George Price of Southwark alias "George Green" : ordinary seamen in HM sloop Speedy 1803-

This book provides a history of the practice of 'pressganging' in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic wars, based on the account of George Price, a sailor pressed into service in 1803. The book quotes letters sent by Price to his brother while serving in HMS Speedy, and other contemporary accounts including news reports, ships' logs, and court reports, to provide a detailed picture of how pressing was used in the conflict, and the daily lives of affected sailors. Includes black and white illustrations throughout.
