The Naval Annual was a book that provided considerable text and graphic information (largely concerning the British Royal Navy) which had previously been obtainable only by consulting a wide range of often foreign language publications. It was started by Thomas Brassey, 1st Earl Brassey in 1886. The Brassey series began a dozen years earlier, and its special strength was the dozen or more detailed articles on naval matters, authored by experts. They covered British and other nations' naval developments ranging from the latest ships to overall policy. Among the contributors are: C. N. Robinson, E. Altham, Alfred Dewar, Paul Chack, Clifford Albion Tinker, R. L. Nicholson, J. E. T. Harper, P. L. Holmes, Cuthbert Maughan, William Raeburn, Alfred Regnauld, John Slee, W. H. Clapham. The contents include: Naval Forces of the British Empire, Foreign Navies, Comparative Naval Strengths, Geneva Conference, 1927, French Naval Policy, Naval Situation in the Pacific, Warship Design, Flying Boats, Imperial Defence, Mercantile Marine, Engineering Progress, Port of Glasgow, Electric Ship Propulsion, Wireless Communication on board Ship, Capital Ships, Cruisers, Torpedo-Boats, Merchant Ships Ballistics of Guns, Naval Estimates, Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.
