''The Economy of the Fleet: Or An Apologetical Answer of Alexander Harris'' is a book written by Alexander Harris in 1879. The book is a defense of the British Navy and its economic importance to the country. Harris argues that the Navy is not only necessary for the defense of the nation, but also plays a crucial role in the economy. He discusses the various ways in which the Navy contributes to the economy, such as through the employment of sailors and the purchase of supplies. Harris also addresses criticisms of the Navy, such as accusations of corruption and inefficiency. The book provides a detailed account of the workings of the Navy and its impact on the British economy during the 19th century. Overall, ''The Economy of the Fleet'' is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the importance of the Navy in the development of the British economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
