"Manual of Ship Subsidies" from Edwin Monroe Bacon. Writer and editor who worked for the Boston Daily Advertiser and The Boston Globe (1844-1916).
Large Format for easy reading.

To foster British commerce they have undeniably been employed to meet and check foreign competition on the seas, as the record shows.
