Foreign Jack Tars
The British Navy and Transnational Seafarers during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars
The British Royal Navy of the French Wars (1793–1815) is an enduring national symbol, but we often overlook the tens of thousands of foreign seamen who contributed to its success. For the first time, this book explores their role in the Navy during this crucial period, challenging the very notions of 'Britishness' and 'foreignness'.
