The story of Great Britain was written in seawater, and no period was more important than the two decades under scrutiny in Dean King's Every Man Will Do His Duty. This collection of memoirs, diaries, and accounts written by Royal Navy personnel (both English and American) during the Napoleonic period will be a sure hit with any reader who has devoured the Aubrey-Maturin novels of Patrick O'Brian. Every Man Will Do His Duty—the title is, of course, Admiral Lord Nelson's famous admonition to his sailors at Trafalgar—pulses with the vividness, immediacy, and honesty that only primary sources can supply. The book is filled with intriguing details of war as it was practiced on the high seas from 1793 to 1815. Editor King has done an excellent job selecting his sources; in addition to views from the captain's quarters, Every Man Will Do His Duty boasts plenty of material penned by mariners of a much humbler station; their accounts provide the bulk of the book's humor. Fans of the nautical novel will find this book a worthy addition to their library, and so will students of English history.

A wonderful glimpse of Iron men on wooden ships.......2001-10-09
"Every Man Will Do His Duty" is an anthology of 22 excerpts from actual diaries and journals of men who served in the the British and American navies during the late 18th century and early 19th century.
I loved this book. Each selection was entertaining and well chosen, both for the glimpses the provide into the lives of the officers and men who served on such ships, and for their historical context (Such as Dr. William Beatty's account of the death of Horatio Nelson).
I'd strongly suggest it to anyone who enjoys Naval History, or historical fiction (Such as Forrester or O'Brian) on the subject. Give it a read, it's worth it.

Down to the Sea in Ships.......2000-06-24
For anyone who is interested in naval warfare in the age of sail in general, or in the Napoleonic period, this book is a must. It is simply superb.
This anthology of first hand accounts covers events in both the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, including the War of 1812, in which the Royal Navy getting some very nasty surprises, and even nastier defeats, at the hands of the small, but expert United States Navy.
Some of the subjects covered are the Battle of Cape St. Vincent in 1797, the sea fight between HMS Macedonian and the USS United States in 1812, the cruise into the Pacific of the USS Essex, and such esoteric subject as 'the noted pimp of Lisbon' and Bermuda in time of peace.
This book is an enjoyable read, an outstanding primary source, and one of the best books available on this often neglected subject.
A window on the age of sail.......2000-06-06
I bought this book because I started down the slippery slope which begins with Patrick O'Brian's *Master* *and* *Commander* and ends with a wall covered with naval prints and trips to Nelson-phile conventions.
This book is an anthology of first hand accounts of naval life in the age of sail. The stories are dramatic and gripping, though I wished the they were longer. The editors have helpfully added some diagrams and maps, though I would have prefered even more.
It is very interesting to see the overlap with the O'Brian books. As O'Brian points out in one of his forwards, at least sometimes he did not need to invent the plot, but merely re-arrange and sort out the pacing.

A Curious Knight.......2005-01-02
Well, I imagine those of you considering buying this book have more than an inkling of what you're in for, unless, like a previous reviewer, you are upset by scholarly, editorial quibbles: Does anyone really care so much if the editor altered amphibium to amphibian or not? Trust me, if you adore verbal arcana, the editor (viz. Robbins) has left enough unexplicated for you to go running to your unabridged OED time and time again. If his notes and explanations are short, all the more reason to rejoice in such need for recourse into other resources to delve into the verbal rich and strange.
That being said, methinks the best, most philosophic and topical section of this compilation is the second part of Religio Medici, the first part of which is, for the most part, involved with theological abstrusities none too cogent to the modern reader due to the discoveries of modern science among other reasons. The second part, by contrast, abounds with speculation and contemplation cogent and arresting to all ages.
As for Hydriotaphia and The Garden of Cyrus, let's just say that if differing forms of burial in antiquity and the reasons pertaining thereto pique your interest, or if you're obsessed that the number five in the form as its displayed on the side of a die may hold the key to the cosmos, as another reviewer has felicitously noted, you will be amply rewarded. Otherwise, well, you may find yourself dozing at parts.
Aside from the delight in outdated and antiquated wording and a unique style of writing that I haven't seen duplicated anywhere, even in the works of Browne's most illustrious contemporaries, the best reason to buy this book is for insights like those below interlarded throughout the text:
Life itself is but the shadow of death, and souls departed but the shadows of the living. Al things fall under this name: the sun itself is but the dark simulacrum. And light but the shadow of God.
We term sleep a death, and yet it is waking that kills us, and destroys those spirits that are the house of life.
For the world, I count it, not an inn, but an hospital, and a place not to live in but to die in.
United souls are not satisfied with embraces, but desire to be truly each other, which being impossible, their desires are infinite, and must proceed without a possibility of satisfaction.
If there be any among those common objects of hatred I do scorn and laugh at, it is that great enemy of reason, virtue, and religion, the multitude-that numerous piece of monstrosity, which, taken asunder, seem men, and the reasonable creatures of God; but confused together, make but one great beast, and a monstrosity..
Thus we are men, and, we know not how, there is something in us than can be without us, and will be after us; though it is strange that it hath no history, what it was before us, nor can tell how it entered us.
Just a sampling of apothegms in this delightful compilation.-Four stars though: At times, one simply wants to shout "Oh what tosh!" to all Browne's ramblings anent his beloved "quincunx".
Great writer, awful edition (Robin Robbins, Oxford UP).......2003-06-20
I'm leaving aside considerations of Browne's importance as a writer. There are plenty of appraisals of him on the net, and if you've found this page, you probably already know what you're looking for.
While this edition may be adequate for the casual reader, it's entirely unsuitable as a scholarly edition:
1) The editor has translated nearly all of Browne's notes without giving them in the original.
2) He has moved these notes from the margin to the foot of the page without bothering to number them. The reader will often find himself finishing a page, discovering a footnote and trying to backtrack to figure out where it fit in. Confusing to say the least, especially because Robbins intermingles his own commentary with Browne's, indicating the latter's with the initial B.
3) Protracted discussions of the text are confined to an appendix (and by protracted, I mean three or four sentences at most). They might as well be incorporated into the body of the text as footnotes, since he only provides six of these for Hydriotaphia, eight for the Garden of Cyrus.
4) The editor has modernized the spelling, despite Browne's well known preference for certain archaic forms. While updating the orthography is helpful (substituing 'j' for 'i,' 'v' for 'u,' etc.), Browne's occasionally unorthodox spelling should hardly present a problem to anyone with half a brain, and if you can't figure out that 'sceleton' means 'skeleton,' you probably won't understand why 'Man is a great and true amphibium.'
5) And obviously, modernizing the spelling vitiates the impact of Hydriotaphia, Browne's meditation on mutability, language and identity, and the anonymity of the grave.
6) Lastly, for such a shoddy edition, it's a pricey, slender paperback. The editor could at least have included Letter to a Friend or a selection from Christian Morals to round it out.
Unfortunately, there are no popular editions of Browne's work available at this time, and it's doubtful whether any shall be in the near future. Search out something used, and avoid this one if you can.
What song the Syrens sang; meditations on time and eternity.......2001-03-24
Sir Thomas Browne's works from the first half of the seventeenth century remain worthy of your attention. He is an essayist, akin in spirit to his rough contemporary Montaigne. He was yet another prose stylist of those fine days of the Stuart period, when the sun of English prose approached its zenith, only to be eclipsed by the English cultivation of melancholia.
The -Hydriotaphia-, or Urn Burial, is perhaps the most celebrated of these works. Its nominal occasion is the discovery and opening of an ancient gravesite, about which Browne, a physician, writes with better archaeological method than most of his antiquarian contemporaries. But this discovery is merely the occasion for what turns into an extended meditation on the funerary monuments of antiquity, and of the great themes of time, eternity, and the frailty of memory and fame.
The -Religio Medici- is a meditation, quite humane and somewhat skeptical especially given his period, on the prevailing religious doctrines and teachings of his day. It is a prayer for peace in an age that was marked by a great deal of religious strife and contention; not surprisingly, it gave doubts to most of the warring parties as to Browne's orthodoxy. Despite its generally skeptical tenor, it seems Browne himself was prepared to accept alchemy, astrology, and witchcraft.
The -Garden of Cyrus- is the most curious of these works. Its nominal subject is the "quincunx," the arrangement of five units like the fives on dice, and its use in ancient horticulture. But it treats this slight subject with such various learning, finding quincunxes everywhere on earth and in the heavens, so that when it's over it seems that understanding the quincunx might be the key to the secrets of the universe.

Book Description
The phenomenal success of Patrick O'Brian's seafaring novels has spawned a great hunger for more reading material on the Royal Navy and the Napoleonic Wars. Dean King has combed through mountains of primary-source material and has selected the most riveting, informative, and entertaining accounts from the great age of sail. His explorations have, in the words of Douglas Day, C. W. Barrett Professor of English at the University of Virginia, "yielded a collection of narratives that are just as exciting as the marvelous Aubrey--Maturin novels of Patrick O'Brian."
Told by actual participants, the eyewitness stories range from slices of life at sea to events of great historical significance, including epic battles such as those of Cape St. Vincent and Trafalgar, and the death of Nelson. Every Man Will Do His Duty is sure to delight legions of seafaring adventure fans.

THE REAL DEAL!.......2000-04-07
Having been in the navy and loving life at sea(though I'm a long way from it now), I always look for books that make me feel like I'm still there. What better book, then, than one written by people who WERE there? This volume collects some of the best first-hand accounts of life at sea in the Royal Navy during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Probably the best of all are admiral Lord Cochrane's telling of his first command, the tiny sloop Speedy, and the experiences of sailors on the gun deck in the heat of battle. Better by far than even the best Hornblower novels(no offense, I love them too). Don't miss this one!
brilliant account of history.......1999-01-10
This book captured me from start to finish. The huge amount of history and knowledge leads to euphoria to the history lover.

Book Description
Alexander the Great and Queen Cleopatra stand shrouded in myth and mystery at opposite ends of a Greek epoch, symbols of the Hellenizing conquests of Egypt and Persia, the ascendancy of Alexandria, and the final absorption of Ptolemaic Egypt into the Roman Empire. Many authors have exploited their lives as the very stuff of legend, beyond human dimension. By contrast, and with penetrating insight, Mary Butts brings Alexander and Cleopatra alive as human beings in two vivid novels, shattering their conventional masks to explore motivations of power, the allure of "the sacred," and the clashes of cultures. In dramatic vignettes from various angles, the lives of Alexander and Cleopatra are separately presented with their extraordinary entourages, including Aristotle, Callisthenes, Julius Caesar, Mark Antony and Cicero. Combined for the first time in this volume, The Macedonian and Scenes from the Life of Cleopatra form a unified work, richly imagined, thoroughly researched, and augmented by three classical stories not previously collected.
Customer Reviews:
An old romantic-era gem.......1998-10-23
Mary Butts died at 45, but left her mark on English women's fiction. This is not her best novel, but it's nevertheless charming. One must note that it has more in common with the novels of the romantic era than the modern historical novel, and furthermore, historical accuracy is not always high, even understanding it was researched and written in the 1920s-early 30s. Still, the work is rich in language and philosophic speculation. For those interested in an novel about Alexander from the earlier period, this is the one to read (along with Nikos Kazantzakis' young-reader's novel, ALEXANDER THE GREAT).

Inspirational poetries for the mind of a Xtian.......2005-12-16
In the world of today where the word "kool" is not associated to christianity, this book brings back the "kool" factor. This is an inspirational book that's good for early morning read to kickstart
a new day, or at night to give you the re-assurance that you are on the right path being a christian.
This is not a book to be read and assume "done that", it's one of those few books that you read each topic over and over again, thinking you are reading that topic for the first time.
But of course what do you expect? It's full of inspirational write-ups.
The true poetries for life.......2005-12-10
My christian life has been a continuous struggle with its unexpected twists and turns. i have come to realize that God, has set rules to govern all aspect of our lives, and if these rules are followed step by step, miracles would not be the prayer focus, but instead miracles will follow everything one embarks on in life.
But is this easy to achieve?
