  • Hornblower's Ships
    Names of Ships from the Hornblower Books. Introduction Hornblower’s biographer, C S Forester, wrote eleven books covering the most active and dramatic episodes of the life of his subject. In addition, he also wrote a Hornblower “Companion” and the so called three “lost” short stories. There were some years and activities in Hornblower’s life that were not written about before the biographer’s death and therefore not recorded. However, the books and stories that were published describe not only what Hornblower did and thought about his life and career but also mentioned in varying levels of detail the people and the ships that he encountered. Hornblower of course served on many ships but also fought with and against them, captured them, sank them or protected them besides just being aware of them. Of all the ships mentioned, a handful of them would have been highly significant for him. The Indefatigable was the ship on which Midshipman and then Acting Lieutenant Hornblower mostly learnt and developed his skills as a seaman and as a fighting man. This learning continued with his experiences on the Renown as a lieutenant. His first commands, apart from prizes taken, were on the Hotspur and the Atropos. Later as a full captain, he took the Lydia round the Horn to the Pacific coast of South America and his first and only captaincy of a ship of the line was on the Sutherland. He first flew his own flag on the Nonsuch and sailed to the Baltic on her. In later years his ships were smaller as befitted the nature of the tasks that fell to him.

  • History of the Royal Marines 1837-1914 HE Blumberg
    History of the Royal Marines 1837-1914 HE Blumberg (Minor editing by Alastair Donald) In preparing this Record I have consulted, wherever possible, the original reports, Battalion War and other Diaries, accounts in Globe and Laurel, etc. The War Office Official Accounts, where extant, the London Gazettes, and Orders in Council have been taken as the basis of events recounted, and I have made free use of the standard histories, eg History of the British Army (Fortescue), History of the Navy (Laird Clowes), Britain's Sea Soldiers (Field), etc. Also the Lives of Admirals and Generals bearing on the campaigns. The authorities consulted have been quoted for each campaign, in order that those desirous of making a fuller study can do so. I have made no pretence of writing a history or making comments, but I have tried to place on record all facts which can show the development of the Corps through the Nineteenth and early part of the Twentieth Centuries.

The numbers voted were 9007, but the RM Artillery had officially ceased to exist - a School of Laboratory and nominally two companies quartered at Fort Cumberland as part of the Portsmouth Division only being maintained. The Portsmouth Division were still in the old inadequate Clarence Barracks in the High Street; Plymouth and Chatham were in their present barracks, which had not then been enlarged to their present size, and Woolwich were in the western part of the Royal Artillery Barracks.

On 21 January, the Second Sea Lord, Sir Alan Massey, opened our centenary year at a reception in the Princess Royal Gallery of the Royal Naval Museum, Portsmouth. About 80 people attended and the venue could hardly have been better considering the very close association of the Society with the museum and HMS Victory . It was also an opportunity to view some remarkably well-preserved artefacts recovered from HMS Invincible, which sank off Spithead in 1758. The excavation of the wreck had been under way since 1982, under the direction of one of our Vice-Presidents, Commander John Bingeman. The day was also the occasion for the formal recognition of David Page’s long service to the Society. David has been Chairman of the Small Craft Committee. He has kept an eye on the annual programme of HMS Victory ’s cutter since the 1990s. His enthusiasm for the cutter has been a vital element in ensuring that it was properly manned, supported and in service.

'Tis pleasant sure to see one's name in print; A book's a book although there's nothing in't." —Byron. FOREWORDS, In view of the interest manifested and the efforts being made in these days by so many of America's sons and daugh­ ters—individually and in organized bodies—with reference to acquiring and perpetuating whatever information will tend to throw light not only on the general history of past times in this country, but on the lives and pedigrees of the men and women who were the makers of that history, it seems super­ fluous to offer any explanation or excuse relative to the why and wherefore of this present book. The biographies of individuals make up the history: of a country; and as many of the men and women whose virtues and deeds are sketched in the following pages did, or are doing, in their day and generation, their share towards making gen­ uine and worthy history, it has been deemed right and proper that the stories of their lives should be embalmed in some per­ manent form.
