Book excerpt: Excerpt from Your Navy as a Fighting Machine What is a capital ship It is a vague sort of term that is frequently employed; nor is much further information usually to be gleaned than that it's a battleship. If there be one thing more than another Of which the general public is supremely ignorant that thing is a battleship. They may know its guns, they may know its displacement, speed and various other de tails - the sort Of thing to be found in every explanatory footnote in the daily Press. But it is safe to wager that not one man in a million in all the British Empire knows exactly what a battleship is for. All have a vague idea, because it so chances that people think in Dreadnoughts and they all know that Dreadnoughts are somewhere in the top line of battleships.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Navy's Part in the Great War The growth of our Navy to more than half a million Officers and men, manning two thousand vessels, has been almost phenomenal; but no less so than the spirit and efficiency these men have displayed, their courage and enterprise in facing every danger and performing every duty imposed upon them. There has been no more striking instance of sea power than in this war, in which the Allies held control of the seas and, in spite of ruthless submarine warfare and the activity of raiders, at last compelled the surrender of the German High Seas Fleet. It is gratifying that our own Navy had a part in accomplishing this resuAbout the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

King, United States Navy, on European Ships of War and Their Armament, Naval Administration and Economy, Marine Constructions and Appliances, Dock-Yards, Etc;, Etc All the navies of Europe have been recently undergoing reconstrue tion, and there has never been a time, during peace, when such large ex penditures for naval purposes were made as at present, and such radical changes effected in the construction of ships of war, in steam-machinery, in machinery for working guns, and for various other purposes on board ship, and in offensive torpedo warfare. It is, therefore, expedient for the Department to be correctly informed of the extent and character of improvements in European naval warfare and economy in order that it may take advantage of the results.
