Royal Navy officer's Jutland pocket-manual, 1916 / W.M. James ; introduction by Brian Lavery. "Published in the months leading up to the Battle of Jutland, W.M. James' New Battleship Organisations, was the ultimate guide to command and organization of every aspect of a modern First World War capital ship. The book provides a unique, and highly revealing, insight into life aboard ship, the mechanics of command, seamanship, the issuing of orders, and the broad expectations placed upon British naval officers. Specific sections are dedicated to the organization of watches, the division of work (from fellow officers right through the ship's company to the ratings), naval routine, parades, anchor and cable work, coaling and right down to the organization of chapel, on-board shops, cleaning and even the ship's barbers. A series of detailed tables, diagrams and humorous cartons accompany the lucid, period language of the First World War Senior Service and provide a further glimpse below-decks that will appeal to social and family historians, and anyone with a general or specialist interest in naval history. The book, re-published here by the Pool of London Press as The Royal Navy Officer's Jutland Pocket-Manual 1916, marks the centenary of the First World War's most famous, and deadly naval encounter." 2016. • BOOK • 1 copy available.

When the navy took to the air : the experimental seaplane stations of the Royal Naval Air Service /Philip "During the years leading up to the First World War, the Royal Navy was at the forefront of change in the field of aviation. When conflict broke out, military aircraft were now needed to defend the fleet, participate in tactical air strikes in enemy territory, and secure Britain against Zeppelin raiders. Presented with a totally new and revolutionary weapon in the aeroplane, the work of several experiemntal airfields and seaplane stations became crucial to the success of these operations. Flexistowe and the Isle of Grain took the lead role in developing new aircraft and aerial weaponry, as well as making ground-breaking advances in navigational systems, air-to-ground radio communication, and deck-board ship landings. Having assembled an elite group of aviation experts and hotshot pilots, these air stations made a vital contribution to the outcome of the war as theyw itnessed the enormous cost, both economic and human, to complete this necessary advance in the fight against enemy forces. This book examines the importance of the Royal Naval Air Service, with first-hand quotes from the pilots and technical pioneers who made such bold leaps forward in thise xperimental era of naval aviation, and detailed coverage of the various successes and failures that these brave and ambitious servicemen faced. When the Navy Took to the Air is the untold story of how, under the pressure of war, the British Navy pushed aviation to the limit."--Provided by the publisher. 2017. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 940.4/4941

"Dann sprang er èuber Bord" : Alltagspsychologie und psychische Erkrankung an Bord britischer Schiffe im 19. Jahrhundert /Karl-Heinz Reger. "Our fascination with big sailing ships is unbroken. In the extensive social-historical literature of naval history the question of how everyday life on board was psychologically experienced is totally uncharted, so is the description of psychological diseases. On the contrary, it must be assumed that a variety of psychological disorders occurred among the mostly young crew members of the sometimes completely closed system 'ship'. The ship was 'world' for the men on board. Karl-Heinz Reger systematically examines the medical journals of the Royal Navy from the time between 1830 and 1880. Due to the double access of the psychiatrist and the historian a large number of phenomena are illustrated. After studying everyday life on board from a psychological point of view the author shows the various disorders including the phenomena of drowning and suicide. All illnesses known in modern neuro-psychiatry are to be found. Not only are 120 cases with exemplary transcriptions of the stylistically excellent English original text presented, but also all therapeutical efforts are described and the complete list of all medicines (including annotations) used on board is given. A psychoanalytical interpretation of the psychological strain and its techniques of compensation forms the final chapter."--Provided by the publisher. c2014. • BOOK • 1 copy available. txt
