This latest edition of the well-established annual publication offers a true feast of information on the design, development, and service history of the world's warships. Covering a diverse range of naval subjects, it features articles on the French cruiser Algerie, the King Edward VII-class battleship known as "The Wobbly Eight," Swedish torpedo boats, the Royal Navy's ship's names committee, British anti-submarine warfare in World War I, the 1898 Battle of Santiago, the Action off Cape Sarych in 1914, and the second part of a trilogy examining the Royal Navy's first class cruisers. The work is rounded off with sections reviewing the naval year and all the best recently published books, videos, and websites on naval history.
