Campbell's Naval History

[Coppit]

When I started research in the pen and ink days of the 1960s into my ancestral Boston Loyalists Amiel family, and their flight from America to England it entailed visits to London about every 3 months. Nowadays, new evidence keeps coming to light while I sit in my armchair.
Quite how my gt grandfather's 1841 letter to Lord Minto arrived in the State Library of New South Wales is unknown but it includes a reference to Campbell's Naval History and cites vol. 7 p.225. This is about Royal Marine Lt. Peter Amiel - who traitorously also swore allegiance to America and was appointed by John Adams as secretary to John Paul Jones.

Is there someone who can kindly look up the work and copy the information which I'm hoping might enable me to sort out much confusing evidence?

I can't help, but could your library do so?

It's a long time since I used library interloan and it was painfully slow, so I was hoping someone might just have access to the BL or Bodleian.
