Black Book of the Admiralty

Read a random definition: ejection

A quick definition of Black Book of the Admiralty:

The Black Book of the Admiralty is a very old book that contains rules and laws about ships and the sea. It was used in England a long time ago and has lots of important information about how people should behave on ships and what should happen if something goes wrong. The book is very special because it has a copy of the Rules of Oleron, which is a very old set of rules about ships that was written a long time ago.

A more thorough explanation:

The Black Book of the Admiralty is a medieval code of maritime law that contains admiralty laws, ordinances, and proceedings, decisions, and acts of the monarch, the Lord High Admiral, and the Court of Admiralty. It is considered a definitive source for customary English maritime law and contains a copy of the Rules of Oleron, an 11th-century compilation of common maritime law.

One example of the Black Book of the Admiralty in action is when a ship is seized by the government for breaking maritime laws. The court would refer to the Black Book to determine the appropriate punishment for the offense.

Another example is when a sailor is injured on a ship. The Black Book would be consulted to determine who is responsible for the injury and what compensation should be given to the sailor.

The examples illustrate how the Black Book of the Admiralty is used to determine the appropriate course of action in maritime legal cases. It is a comprehensive guide to maritime law that has been used for centuries to ensure fair and just outcomes in cases involving ships, sailors, and maritime commerce.
