They covered British and other nations' naval developments ranging from the latest ships to overall policy. Among the contributors are: C. N. Robinson E. Altham Alfred Dewar Paul Chack Clifford Albion Tinker R. L. Nicholson J. E. T. Harper P. L. Holmes Cuthbert Maughan William Raeburn Alfred Regnauld John Slee W. H. Clapham.

Very good condition. No dust jacket as issued. Charles Miner 1780 - 1865 was an anti-slavery advocate. He served in the Pennsylvania State House of Representatives from 1807 to 1808 and the United States House of Representatives from 1825 to 1829 as a member of the Federalist Party. Miner's efforts laid a foundation for the early abolitionist movement. He brought the question of slavery to the House and sparked conversation about abolition.
