""Manning The Navy: A Statement, In Which The Evils And Losses Arising From The Present System Are Set Forth"" is a book written by Arthur Parry Eardley-Wilmot in 1849. The book is a critical analysis of the British Navy's recruitment system at the time, which the author argues was inefficient and resulted in significant losses. Eardley-Wilmot argues that the Navy's recruitment system was flawed because it relied heavily on the use of press gangs, which were notorious for their brutal and often illegal tactics. He also criticizes the Navy's reliance on volunteers, who he claims were often poorly trained and ill-equipped for the demands of naval service.The author goes on to suggest a number of reforms to the Navy's recruitment system, including the establishment of a standing naval reserve and the introduction of a more rigorous training program for recruits. He also advocates for the use of financial incentives to encourage more men to join the Navy voluntarily.Overall, ""Manning The Navy"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that sheds light on the challenges faced by the British Navy in the mid-19th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of naval recruitment and the development of the British Navy during this period.And A Remedy Is Proposed Whereby A Permanent Navy May Be Established, And The Moral, Social, And Physical Condition Of The British Seaman Improved.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
