Notes
This is a magnificent book. There are nearly 200 images of Brown's shipyard during the war, most of which are of the various warships under construction there. Brown's employed a photographer to record progress in the shipyard, a far-sighted provision. The book is stuffed full of fascinating photographs, which give us an idea of what the "picture under the skin" of these ships was.
