About this title

Synopsis:

Devonport is one of the main Royal Navy bases today, but its history goes back to 1689 when William III ordered the building of a new Royal dockyard west of Plymouth. This illustrated chronicles lists all the warships built there since 1860, when increased levels of armouring qualified the craft as �€˜modern�€, with key facts and potted histories of significant ships such as HMS Royal Oak, HMS Warspite and HMS Exeter.
