Burmese gunboats build at Rangoon in 1821

Thanks to the fact that nowadays more and more books are digitized we are able to read books that are some times for decades no longer available for the public for several reasons. That's quite a pity while these books contains useful information while the archives are destroyed, incomplete or nor accessible.
p. 258. "September 1821. Two brigs of war, or some gunboats, are about being built at Rangoon, to co-operate against the Siamese."
