Description

Examining the relationship of administrative culture within government bureaucracy to contemporary perceptions of efficiency, Naval Power and British Culture, 1760-1850 explores the attitudes of the public employers who helped run the Royal Navy, including the administrative ideas, structures, practices and mores of employees. It also focuses on the transition in the culture of government employees in the naval establishments in London - in the Navy and Victualling Offices - as well as the victualling yard towns along the Thames and Medway.
