Admiral Hamilton edited three volumes of Byam Martin’s papers which were issued out of sequence.

This volume consists of journals, public and private correspondence dealing with the years 1808 to 1812, when Martin was a captain in Saumarez’s fleet in the Baltic, and 1812 to 1813, when he was Lord Keith’s second-in-command and responsible for the naval effort in support of Wellington’s army along the North coast of Spain.
