Hello,

First off, sorry to the Mods if this isn't allowed. I checked your rules and couldn't find anything really against it accept maybe Rule 2 but upon checking the post history, it would seem I am not the first to have this type of question.

I am looking for some paper and/or book recommendations about naval warfare during the Napoleonic Wars, this topic is greatly interesting to me but over the years I seem to have bled the YouTube videos and Wikipedia articles on this subject dry. I am looking for something slightly more in-depth and specific to this subject. I have of course found plenty of books about Napoleons Conquest but my money situation is rather tight and the idea of buying one of these books just for it to have only a single chapter on the naval warfare is daunting.

Also if you are unable to recommend any papers or books, you might still be able to help. I am simply not sure how to find this type of information myself, I literally don't know where to start, which you might.

Thank-you very much for taking the time to read that. Have a good day and stay safe :)
