remarkable account of nine years captivity on the British prison hulks during the Napoleonic wars, 1806 A translation of Garneray's account of his life as a prisoner of war on board the prison hulks, originally published in French in 1851 as Mes Pontons. Louis Garneray (1783-1857), a marine artist, went to sea at the age of 13, serving on board privateers in the Indian Ocean until captured by the British in 1806. This work records Garneray's confinement on the Prothee, Crown and Vengeance, hulks stationed in Portsmouth harbour, and the Pegase, a hospital ship. In the foreword describing Garneray's life, the translator, Richard Rose, highlights inconsistencies in Garneray's account and casts some doubt on his reliability as a historian and narrator while accepting the accuracy of his depiction of daily life, routines and physical conditions on board the hulks. Garneray went on to become one of the foremost marine painters of his day, having developed his talent during his captivity. The title includes illustrations and plates of paintings by Garneray. Appendices provide lists of the hulks stationed at Portsmouth and French officers on board and on parole, details of Garneray's sources, background on the rafales, women on board, the mortality of prisoners of war, and brief biographies of people connected to the hulks and linked to Garneray's narrative. The work is supported by detailed notes and a bibliography. 2003 • BOOK • 2 copies available. 629.124.79:343.81

Russian California, 1806-1860 : a history in documents /compiled and edited by James R. "This two-volume book is a documentary history of Russia's 19th-century settlement in California. It contains 492 documents (letters, reports, travel descriptions, censuses, ethnographic and geographical information), mostly translated from the Russian for the first time, very fully annotated, and with an extensive historical introduction, maps, and illustrations, many in colour. This broad range of primary sources provides a comprehensive and detailed history of the Russian Empire's most distant and most exotic outpost, one whose liquidation in 1841 presaged St Petersburg's abandonment of all of Russian America in 1867. Russia from the sixteenth century onwards had steadily expanded eastwards in search of profitable resources. This expansion was rapid, eased not only by the absence of foreign opposition and disunity of the native peoples but also by Siberia's river network and the North Pacific's convenient causeway of the Aleutian chain leading to Alaska. It was paid for largely by the 'soft gold' of Siberian sables and Pacific sea otters. By the end of the 1700s, however, on the Northwest Coast of North America the Russians met increasing opposition from the indigenous people (Tlingits) and foreign rivals (American and English fur-trading vessels). This combination soon depleted the coast of sea otters, and at the same time the Russians were finding it ever more expensive to obtain supplies from Europe by overland transport across Siberia or round-the-world voyages, so under the aegis of the monopolistic Russian-American Company (1799) they leapfrogged southward to the frontera del norte of the Spanish viceroyalty of New Spain. Here, in 1812, they founded Russian California (officially, Ross Counter) as a base for hunting the Californian sea otter, growing grain and rearing stock, and trading with the Spanish missions. Eventually the exclave comprised a fort (Ross), a port (Bodega), five farms, and a hunting and birding station on the Farallon Islands, as well as a shipyard, a tannery, and a brickworks. The successes and failures of these enterprises, the perils of navigation, experiments in agriculture, the personal, political and economic problems of the colony, and Russian engagement with the indigenous population all come to life in these pages."--Provided by the publisher. 2014. • BOOK • 2 copies available. 061.22HAKLUYT
