This Index lists authors and their contributions published in THE LOG from the first issue in 1954 to end 2014. It is arranged in two parts depending on the type of vessel involved:

PART 1 MERCHANT VESSELS

PART 2 NAVAL VESSELS

Articles are arranged in chronological order for each author.

The Index shows LOG Issue Number (bolded), followed by a slash, then page number in that issue.

‘Nom de Plumes’ are followed in brackets by real names where known. These real names (where listed) are followed by their respective ‘Nom de Plumes’ in brackets.

Names of vessels are in CAPITALS.

Secondary information is typically in brackets (eg correspondence, further information, contributors).

Book and other reviews are not included.

To convert LOG Issue Number to LOG Volume/No and Date, see tables following the Index. The first table (with W prefixes) is for LOGs produced by the World Ship Society from 1954 to 1967. The second table is for LOGs produced by the Nautical Association from 1968 to 2014.

This Index is available to view as a searchable pdf document on the NAA website and can be downloaded and saved if required. Hard copies are available from the NAA from time to time.
