About This Item
Hardback. New. The press gang, and its forcible recruitment of sailors to man the Royal Navy in times of war, acquired notoriety for depriving men of their liberty and carrying them away to a harsh life at sea, sometimes for years at a time. This book explains how the press gang worked, whom it was aimed at and how successful it was in achieving its ends.
