By Christopher Biden

Book Overview

Naval Discipline: Subordination Contrasted With Insubordination is a book written by Christopher Biden in 1830. The book is a detailed examination of the importance of discipline and order in the navy, and the consequences of insubordination. Biden argues that discipline is the key to success in naval operations, and that without it, chaos and failure are inevitable. He contrasts the behavior of disciplined sailors with those who are insubordinate, and shows how the latter can cause serious problems for the entire crew. The book also explores the role of the captain in maintaining discipline, and the importance of clear and consistent rules and regulations. Overall, Naval Discipline is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of naval operations, and the importance of discipline and order in military organizations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
