The MARINER’S MIRROR The International Journal of the Society for Nautical Research Bibliography for 2010 Compiled by Karen Partridge London The Society for Nautical Research 2 The Mariner’s Mirror Bibliography for 2010 Introduction This, the twenty-seventh annual maritime bibliography, includes books and articles published in 2010, as well as some works published in earlier years. The subjects included are as follows: naval history, mercantile history, nautical archaeology (but not the more technical works), biography, voyages and travel, and art and weapons and artefacts. A list of acquisitions of manuscripts precedes the published works cited, and I am, as always, grateful to The National Archives: Historical Manuscripts Commission (TNA: HMC) for providing this. With regard to books, International Standard Book Numbers (ISBNs) have been included, when available. This bibliography for 2010 was prepared and edited by Karen Partridge. Any correspondence relating to the bibliography should be sent to her at: 12 The Brambles, Limes Park Road, St Ives, Cambridgeshire, pe27 5nj email: [email protected] The compiler would like to thank everyone who contributed to the present bibliography, and always welcomes the assistance of readers. I should also like to acknowledge my use of the material found in the Tijdschrift voor Zeegeschiedenis. This will be the last annual bibliography to appear in its current form. The annual bibliography for 2011 and subsequent bibliographies will be available to readers on the Society’s website, but will no longer be distributed to members as a paper copy. Introductory note to accessions 2010 In its annual ‘Accessions to Repositories’ survey The National Archives collects information from over 200 record repositories throughout the British Isles about manuscript accessions received in the previous twelve months. This information is added to the indexes of the National Register of Archives, and it is also edited and used to produce thirty-three thematic digests which are made available through The National Archives web site (http://www. nationalarchives.gov.uk/accessions/), and distributed for publication in a number of learned journals and newsletters.
