Hilhouse of Bristol : shipbuilder for the Navy, 1749-1822 /Andrew Whitefield. "In this book Andrew Whitefield sets out to rediscover Hilhouse's career and answer the questions that first attracted him to the enigma of Hilhouse. How did he start as a first generation shipbuilder? How did he overcome the Navy's prejudice against merchants and reluctance to build at Bristol? Where was his famous Redclift yard? Why did the Navy cease to place orders? Drawing on hitherto unpublished primary sources and following tantalizing clues, he traces Hilhouse's family's origins, their involvement as Dissenters and Merchant Venturers in Bristol's Golden Age trading in sugar and risking all in privateering ventures. The book describes Hilhouse's shipbuilding career, not without setbacks, with details of his dockyard organization, dealings with the Navy and histories of his warships and also recounts the cultural side of his life and influential artistic friends. The story that emerges provides a fascinating portrait of a shipbuilder, artist and family man, during a vital period of Britain's maritime history and gives James Martin Hilhouse the recognition he deserves."-- 2010. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 92HILHOUSE:629.12(424.1)

Arctic artist : the journal and paintings of George Back, midshipman with Franklin, 1819-1822 "Arctic Artist is the liveliest and most complete account of Sir John Franklin's tragic first Arctic land expedition. George Back's prose captures the drama of this journey, and his superb watercolour sketches reveal the beauty and wonder of this northern land. Back's journal completes Stuart Houston's trilogy of the journals of Franklin's officers, and is particularly valuable because it is the only journal that records the entire expedition; Franklin himself relied on it for his own published account of the journey. Houston provides an introduction and extensive annotations, as well as synopses of the frank comments regarding the expedition recorded in the various journals of the Hudson's Bay fur trade posts. I.S. MacLaren's commentary on Back's paintings reveals a naval officer of exceptional talent. Conversant with the artistic conventions and aesthetic temper of his age, Back used his sketchbooks not only to depict the expedition's progress but also to capture his imaginative response to the northern wilderness. MacLaren also edits and comments on two other documents written by Back during the expedition: a candid letter to his brother and a poem dramatizing the disaster that claimed the lines of eleven of the twenty explorers in Franklin's party."--Provided by the publisher. 1994 • FOLIO • 1 copy available. 7.047(26:98)
