| book description |

These volumes present letters and other documents of St Vincentâ€™s period as First Lord of the Admiralty, the most controversial and politically-heated of any during the time of the sailing navy. They are taken from his out-letter books, and do not include the replies. Unusually for Society volumes, the editor selected only a part of each letter for publication, but such severe editing does not entirely muffle the Earlâ€™s spiky and forceful turn of phrase. This volume covers the first year of St Vincentâ€™s time at the Admiralty, 1801.
