Note
Spine title: Hollond's discourses of the navy.
Half title: Mr. Hollond his first discourse of the navy, written anno 1638; [2nd] half title: Mr. Hollond's second discourse touching the navy written about the year 1659-viz ...
Title on p. [107]: The navy ript and ransackt [sic], or, A brief discovery of some few (of the many) rents and leaks of the navy, principally occasioned by the default of some of the master caulkers ...
John Hollond had a chequered career as a naval administrator, punctuated by his charges of corruption against his colleagues, circulated in these two manuscripts, and their counter-charges against him, but his Discourses are uniquely informative. There is also printed Sir Robert Slyngesbie's Discourse of the Navy, written in 1660 when he had just become Controller for the information of Charles II, and a number of other documents which amplify or explain Hollond's narrative.
Includes index.
Bookplate: Gerald E. Aylmer.
