Excerpt from The Royal Navy, Vol. 4 of 6: A History From the Earliest Times to the PresentOwing to a misconception, for which I was, I fear, partly to blame, Mr. Wilson's contribution to the history of the events of 1793 - 1802 is somewhat briefer and less detailed than it might have been. Mr. Wilson unwittingly devoted some of the space allotted to him to the consideration of events which had been already dealt with in other chapters; and, with regret, I found myself obliged to delete all such passages as involved any repetition.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
