1 McGowan, Alan Sailor : Life on Board the World's Fighting Ships from the Beginning of Photography
New York, NY, U.S.A. David McKay Company, Incorporated 1977 0-679-50768-X / 9780679507680 Hard Cover Fine Fine Ships 
A pictorial history. Life aboard the worlds fighting ships. In the last 125 years, the navies of the world have altered out of all recognition: the wooden-hulled sailing vessels of the Napoleonic wars and the years following them have given way to steel ships driven by propellers. Some 320 photographs show, far more graphically than could be managed merely with text, the steady evolution of the hard-done-by sailor of Victorian times into today's highly trained and sophisticated fighting seaman. Short text sections provide a concise history of naval warfare to the present day against which to set the photographs and lively captions. (Ref. #ACC-S12).
