Biography

 
Portrait of Anthony Dean by John Greenhill

In 1673 , as an alderman of Harwich, he financed the construction of a new prison and city hall . [1] Dean also was an alderman of the City of London . [2] He and his patron Samuel Pepys were members of parliament from Harwich in the third parliament of Charles II (who acted from March 6, 1678 and was part of the Royal Parliament).

The main literary work of the master, who laid many of the foundations of shipbuilding, as a science was the "Doctrine of Maritime Architecture" (1670).

In 1666, the ship's master Anthony Dean, for the first time, calculated the future draft of the battleship and ordered that the ports of the ship be cut through on the stocks . After 20 years, under his leadership in the English fleet, this practice has become permanent.

Dean was the tutor of Peter the Great during his stay and study of the latter at Deptford .

He was married twice, from his first marriage he had four sons, from the second - a son and a daughter.
