Rodger, Command of the Ocean, 354-5, 381, notes that Keppel's overtly political use of patronage made the American war the only occasion when the ending of hostilities saw a boom in promotions. Hence, even Burney's and Williamson's late successes were abnormal and probably unexpected.

It may have been particularly difficult being an Irishman in the navy, if what Greg Dening has called the 'cliometrics of violence' during Cook's last voyage add up: Dening, Mr Bligh's Bad Language, 113-24. Of the thirty-four floggings administered to men on the Resolution with known origins, 71 per cent were to men stated to be English, 21 per cent to Irish, 6 per cent to North Americans, 3 per cent to Welsh (figures rounded up).

This was broadly in line with the proportions of the crews, except in the case of the Irish, who only made up 8 per cent of those with a known origin. Whether owing to stereotypes of shiftless and criminal Irish, or to real differences in cultures of work and time discipline, there was ethnic differentiation in naval punishment. Flogging figure are derived from the lists in Salmond, Trial of the Cannibal Dog, 435-7
