KORTE INHOUD
In all of these, Middleton played a role: as a serving sea-officer, as a major stockholder in the East India Company, as a reforming naval administrator of overwhelming energy and a near superfluity of ideas, as a naval adviser to William Pitt the Younger, as a member of the Admiralty Board, and finally as First Lord of the Admiralty during the Trafalgar campaign.
