An Address To The British Public: With Suggestions For The Recovering Property From Sunken Vessels (1838)

An Address To The British Public: With Suggestions For The Recovering Property From Sunken Vessels is a book written by George William Manby in 1838. In this book, Manby addresses the issue of recovering property from sunken vessels and provides suggestions on how to do so. He argues that the current methods used by the British government are inadequate and that new methods need to be developed in order to recover valuable goods lost at sea. Manby suggests using a combination of diving bells, air pumps, and other technologies to recover sunken property. He also discusses the legal and ethical implications of recovering property from sunken vessels, including the rights of salvage and the responsibilities of the government. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of maritime salvage and the technology used to recover lost goods at sea.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
