Some data of 74 cannon 18 th century sailing ship best!
Your article preecflty shows what I needed to know, thanks!
A high state of order, courage, devotion to duty, unremitting zeal, a sense of honour, a commitment to ferocious battle: why does Corbet not emerge a hero?
… brilliant posts.
British naval guns were by 1805 fitted with instant firing mechanisms: the moment the gun captain wanted the gun fired, he pulled a lanyard, a flintlock fell, the spark was communicated to the powder in the breech and the gun fired. In the French and Spanish ships, those flintlocks had not been fitted, and the gunners depended on a relatively slow-burning fuse, a slow-match, whose burning time could not be accurately predicted.
Great atrcile, thank you again for writing.
I cannot at this moment read a tale Of two brave Vessels matched in deadly fight And fighting to the death, but I am pleased More than a wise man ought to be; I wish, I burn, I struggle, and in soul am there.
Moving style. I would love to write that way.

What a great rseuorce this text is.
That’s way the betsest answer so far!
The officers of the Gloucester had a total of 500 books on board, which was all very well. But to find a Hickey slinging his hammock between the 32-pounders on the gundecks with between five and six hundred other men, where the ports being necessarily closed from evening to morning, the heat, in this cavern of only 6 feet high, and so entirely filled with human bodies, was overpowering, that was simply disturbing.
Good blog, fresh infa, pochityvayu

Never seen a better post!
I’m not easily ipmresesd. . . but that’s impressing me!
Frankly I think that’s abosutelly good stuff.
Hey, good to find someone who argees with me.
This is May 1812 and the man – significantly nameless in the story; Mangin only names officers – had been through one of the central liminal experiences by which the culti- vated classes of Europe were then entranced. He had seen death; he had been within deaths grasp; he had lived through a moment of revelatory, Gothic intensity and yet he shrugs it off like a dog that has been for a plunge in a river.
Sir William Beechey, when painting Nelson, fluffed up his rather flat reddish-grey hair into much more of a heroic creation than it was.
Great aritlce, thank you again for writing.
The cries of the wounded now rang through all parts of the ship. These were carried to the cockpit as fast as they fell, while those more fortunate men, who were killed outright, were immediately thrown over-board. As I was stationed but a short distance from the main hatchway,
