Cochrane : Britannia's Sea-Wolf
The controversial Thomas Cochrane, known to many as the "Sea Wolf", is second only to Nelson himself among the heroes and legends of the Royal Navy. Renowned for his daring, skill, and enterprise, Cochrane was much revered by his men and, remarkably enough, later went on to command ships in the navies of Chile, Brazil, Peru, and Greece, providing outstanding leadership in their struggles for freedom. As a Radical Member of Parliament and a staunch supporter of reform in its darkest hour, Cochrane stood on principle rather than on practicality and constantly found himself at the center of political firestorms.383p.maps bibliography, index Book

Pack, S.W.C.
The Battle of Matapan
Description of the encounter in 1941 between the Royal Navy and the Italian Fleet off Cape Matapan, Greece during WW II. "In March 1941 Britain faced the Axis powers alone. Her army was still in disarray after Dunkerque, her fleet was stretched to the uttermost. It was in this context that, 100 miles off Cape Matapan in Greece, there was fought an action in which the Italian fleet was so signally defeated that it never voluntarily offered battle again so long as the war lasted. The engagement, the first major fleet action since Jutland a quarter of a century earlier, was of historical significance for two reasons; it was the first time carrier-borne aircraft had played a vital role, and the first time that the use of radar was of preponderant importance in a large-scale fleet action. Here is an account of Matapan which, illustrated by unfamiliar action photographs, will satisfy the expert no less than it will engross the general reader." 183p. plates.index Book

( Division 14, National Defence Research Committee )
Final Project Report - December, 1945 (eBook, pdf file su CD-ROM)
over 700pp tot. NB: please note that the item offered for sale is NOT a physical book; it is an e-book consisting of a CD-ROM disc containing a readable file in PDF format. Please also note that this disc does not contain video or audio files and will not play on a home CD/DVD player. Imperfect scanning of the report with misalignments and shades but complete and fully readable both in text and illustrations, with a faint diagonal watermark in the foreground on the pages. From the Introduction: “In this Final Report each of the Division 14 projects is discussed. (..) The purpose of this report is to present enough of the administrative detail, technical advances, production data and operational use so that the separate contracts and the individual projects undertaken may be seen as parts of the whole development and may be followed, though briefly, from start to finish. References are given to more detailed technical reports wherever possible.” Profusely illustrated by b/w pictures, diagrams and tables. There are most interesting pictures and data of apparatus and radar installation which had not been published elsewhere. A very scarce publication, rarely found for sale. This report reviews the massive effort on the development of Radar, LORAN navigation system and associated components undertaken at the MIT Radiation Laboratory and related Organisations and Contractors during WW2. Produced by the Division 14 (RADAR) of the National Defence Research Committee (NDRC) it covers a wide range of Radar components, subsystems and techniques such as antennas, magnetrons, klystrons, indicators, switches, waveguides, LORAN system, fire control systems etc. with technical data, cost information, current project status, delivered quantities, etc. Even with its imperfect scanning process and its defects, this ebook is a must for any WW2 Radar historian or enthusiast as it offers a wealth of information not readily available from other sources on the technical development of Radar in those critical times.
