Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The 1719 Establishment was the first formal establishment laid down to govern the construction of all ships built for the Royal Navy down to those of 20 guns. It superseded the previous 1706 Establishment, which had only specified the major dimensions of ships of 40 guns and above (and had specifically excluded the 100-gun First Rates).
