Description

Explore a unique historical record with British Warship Recognition (Perkins Identification Album 1): Volume I: Capital Ships 1895-1939. This volume focuses on the era of capital ships, drawing from the extensive research of Richard Perkins. As an avid collector and photographer, Perkins amassed a massive collection of warship negatives that now serves as a core part of the National Maritime Museum's historic photos naval section. To address the lack of identification and dating in many historical photos, Perkins created an album of his own detailed drawings. These drawings provide specific details on individual ships, allowing for continuous updates as new information was discovered. This book offers a deep look into naval history through the eyes of a dedicated researcher, making it a valuable resource for maritime enthusiasts and historians seeking accurate ship identification from the inter-war years.
