Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a defense of the author's character after he was dismissed from his post in the Dock-yard at Sheerness. The author had been Clerk of the Cheque for 26 years, and he was dismissed in 1802 shortly after a visitation from the Admiralty and Navy Boards. The author denies that he was guilty of any negligence or inattention to his duties, and he argues that he was dismissed because of prejudice against him. The book provides an interesting insight into the workings of the British Navy in the early 19th century, and it raises important questions about the nature of justice and the rights of individuals.
