Robert William Hay of the Colonial Office (1786-1861) contributed many articles to the 'Quarterly Review' and through that made a connection with the Murray publishing house. The items here consist of two copies of a proposal of Hay relating to a book about naval engagements. The first of these is in the hand of Hay, the second is in the hand of a copyist with annotations by Hay.

The main text of the proposal would appear to be in the hand of a copyist, only the corrections to the text being in Hay`s hand.
