The Floating Republic: An Account of the Mutinies at Spithead and the Nore in 1797 (Pen & Sword Military Classics) (Pen and Sword Military Classics)

The naval mutiny of 1797 is the most astonishing recorded in British history; by its management rather than by its results. Though it shook the country, it was largely ordered with rigid discipline, a respect for officers and an unswerving loyalty to the King. Moreover, it was so rationally grounded that it not only achieved its immediate end, the betterment of the sailor's lot, but also began a new and lasting epoch in naval administration.
