Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed history of how ship and naval hygiene developed following thousands of years of poor sanitation on seafaring vessels. From the era of wooden sailing ships to the modern ironclad, the author examines the challenges that navies faced in keeping their sailors healthy. These included everything from overcrowding to poor ventilation, as well as the unique challenges of feeding a crew on long voyages when fresh supplies were scarce. As the author shows, while naval hygiene practices remained stagnant for centuries, the Industrial Revolution brought about rapid advances. This book traces the history of these developments, providing insights into the severe conditions that sailors faced aboard, and the difficulties in maintaining a healthy crew on long voyages. It also reveals how, with time, science and technology improved naval hygiene practices, leading to better health outcomes for sailors and the creation of safer and more efficient ships.
