Inventions Or Devises
By:William Bourne
Published on 1576 by
Descriptions of 133 devices for use in war on land and sea, including use in gunnery and navigation. Following a dedication (f. iv recto-iv verso) to William Cecil, Lord Burghley, Lord High Treasurer to Elizabeth I, and a preface (f. 1r-6v), a table of contents (f. 7r-17r) lists the 133 devices. Numbers in the upper margin of the text correspond to the numbers in the table of contents. The manuscript predates the first printed edition by approximately 2 years, and has more devices than the printed edition, although it does not include all of the devices that appear in the printed edition. A later note refers to the use of the eighth or ninth device against the Spanish Armada (f. 25r).
