  • The Mid-Eighteenth Century Navy from the Perspective of Captain Thomas Burnett and His Peers
    1 THE MID-EIGHTEENTH CENTURY NAVY FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF CAPTAIN THOMAS BURNETT AND HIS PEERS Submitted by Anne Byrne McLeod to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Maritime History in October 2010 This thesis is available for library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ……………………………………………. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis explores the concerns of mid-eighteenth century naval captains through the careers of Captain Thomas Burnett and the cohort of thirty five officers who were posted captain in 1757 soon after the start of the Seven Years‟ War. A subsidiary cohort, that of the 129 lieutenants who were, like Burnett, first commissioned in 1744 is used as a control against which to measure the statistical worth of the smaller cohort. Examination of the day to day concerns of the captains has been made possible through the rich and varied resource of their letters to the Admiralty, which have hitherto been little used as a source by historians. Despite the formality of these letters not merely the concerns but also the personalities and characters of the writers are vividly conveyed. After tracing the career of Thomas Burnett this thesis examines the 1757 cohort and its progression to the rank of master and commander.
