On The Necessity Of A More Effectual System Of National Defense: And The Means Of Establishing The Permanent Security Of The Kingdom (1808) is a book written by Thomas Douglas Selkirk. The book primarily focuses on the need for a stronger national defense system and the means through which the permanent security of the kingdom can be established. Selkirk argues that the current defense system is inadequate and requires significant improvement to ensure the safety and security of the kingdom. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific aspect of national defense. Selkirk discusses the importance of a strong navy and the need for a well-trained and well-equipped army. He also emphasizes the importance of strategic planning and the need for a comprehensive defense strategy that takes into account all possible threats to the kingdom. Selkirk proposes several solutions for establishing a more effective defense system. He suggests the establishment of a national militia that can be mobilized in times of crisis, as well as the creation of a national defense fund to finance the necessary equipment and infrastructure. He also advocates for the establishment of a national intelligence agency to gather information on potential threats and to coordinate defense efforts. Overall, On The Necessity Of A More Effectual System Of National Defense: And The Means Of Establishing The Permanent Security Of The Kingdom (1808) is an important historical document that sheds light on the concerns and priorities of the British government during the early 19th century. The book provides valuable insights into the challenges of national defense and the measures that were taken to address them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
