To purchase books, dealing with many aspects of the Royal Navy's past, direct from a secure payment site provided by "Amazon Books":- "Click" on the "Hyperlinked book title" below each Books picture as required and follow the links. You will then be taken to either the "Amazon Books" site for new books, or to the "Amazon Marketplace", where you can obtain second hand, or out of print, copies from 3rd. party sellers. You will also find, on those pages, a brief synopsis of the contents of each book which will hopefully be of help to you.
You can return to here from the "Amazon" site by using the "Back" button on your browser toolbar as required.

To obtain copies of documents I have produced, via "Lulu.com", using material contained in the many books featured in the sections below,
________________________________________________________
Section 1 :- Books containing a similar theme to this website. ( Collections of Photographs etc.)
Over the years that my site has been active I have often been asked why I do not include summaries of the various ships activities. The main reason why I do not is down to my having insufficient knowledge of the subject to do it justice. Therefore I would prefer to leave the task to those who have much greater knowledge than I, and, judging by the quality of the various books available, a few of which I have showcased below, much greater resources. I recommend all of the books shown, and I feel that you will obtain as much enjoyment and information from them as I have. Most of them also include excellent "Potted Histories" ( to quote Mr. Mike Critchley, many of whose books I feature here ).

Section 2 :- Books dealing with specific ships, or types of vessel.
I would like to apologize at this point as it was my original intention for these two following sections to be complete and separate as their section headings suggest. However, as this part of my site has developed, I have found that there often is a quite "blurred" demarcation between them. I have done my best to keep to the separations as originally intended, but the more books I feature the more difficult it seems to become. I hope this does not detract from your enjoyment.

There are many other excellent books of this nature that I will add to these sections as they become known to me.
