Excerpt from Memoir of the Early Operations of the Burmese War: Addressed to the Editor of the United Service Journal
On its publication, remarks were made by various persons, and angry complaints by the navy I, for one, spoke to Colonel Snodgrass on the subject; and his answer was, That his work was a journal of Sir Archibald Campbell's army; that he did not understand naval tactics and that he thought some naval man had better publish an account of their proceedings adding, however, that the naval force employed was comparatively small and, you know that, at one time, you were the only naval officer doing duty at Rangoon.
This was all well and true, on the part of the Colonel but, the public having read and approved his work, it was scarcely probable that they would read and approve all, or any, of the nine hundred and ninety-nine accounts that might follow it; and, consequently, the naval man, whoever he might be, that should undertake the task, would have an additional difficulty to overcome to obtain a hearing.
