Manual of Seamanship 1937. By Authority of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty. Volume One [only]. [Third Impression]. BRIGHT, CLEAN COPY OF THE 1941 REISSUE
8vo., Third Impression, with 26 coloured plates, 15 plates in monochrome, very numerous illustrations and diagrams (many full-page) in the text and 2 large folding plans; original navy blue cloth, upper board blocked in blind, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy. With front and rear trade advertisement endpapers. The 1937 edition of the 'pusser's bible' was the first major revision since 1932. First issued in 1938, it was reprinted each year until 1943 (though curiously we have been unable to confirm a 1939 issue). All reprints are very slightly abridged (mostly in terms of illustration; in particular the expensive plate overlays of the first impression were quickly abandoned with the outbreak of hostilities). Well produced and exceptionally well illustrated, it was in common use with officers and ratings alike (unlike its sister the Manual of Navigation), and there is a fair argument for its being today the most evocative Royal Navy publication of the war years. Bright, firm copy of the standard WWII edition.

The Royal Navy and the Mediterranean Convoys. A Naval Staff History. With a Preface by Malcolm Llewellyn-Jones. [With a Foreword by Admiral Sir Jonathon Band].
4to., First Edition, with 11 coloured plans (8 double-page), 4 full-page diagrams and several illustrations and charts in the text; pictorial boards lettered in white, a fine copy. Naval Staff Histories were produced after WWII in order to provide as full an account of the various actions as was possible at the time. The audience was largely serving officers; some of the volumes were classified, not to restrict their distribution but to allow the writers to be as candid as possible. At this stage of history they represent a uniquely valuable resource. This volume contains Battle Summary 18 (Mediterranean Convoys 1941) and Battle Summary 32 (Malta Convoys 1942), completed by J. Owen and originally issued in 1944 and 1945 respectively. These summaries were combined and extensively revised by Pitcairn-Jones and re-issued in 1957 as Selected Convoys (Mediterranean) 1941-42. By this time Pitcairn-Jones had access to the full records including those captured from German and Italian forces.

Admiralty Battle Summaries were written relatively soon after the events they describe (the last of the present collection was produced in 1952) and are based on official documentary material which did not become available to the public at large until 1968. They were written by authors who understood thoroughly their topics, as follows: Operation 'Neptune': Commander L.J. Pitrcairn-Jones; The Campaign in North-West Europe: Commander J.H. Lloyd-Owen; Operation 'Dragoon': Commander W.E.H. Westall. In due course, the volumes became basic reference sources for the authors of the Cabinet Office series of OFFICIAL HISTORIES OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR

AFET INAN.
Life and works of Piri Reis. Translation into English: Engin Uzmen, Leman Yolaç.
New English Paperback. Pbo. In English. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). Ills. While learning and teaching Turkish history I have always asked myself these questions: What are our chief individual and national achievements in the history of civilization? Are we able to make known to the world the originators of these achievements in an adequate way? There is no doubt that our political and military figures have had a fairer deal in this respect. But it has often not been taken into consideration that when the Ottoman armies had gone as far as the walls of Vienna, the Ottoman powers possesses the most advanced equipment of the age and they were organized in a most advanced way. After all, works depending on learning and tecnology have always been the significant foundations in the lives of nations.

African American in US Navy U S
African American Military History U.S. Navy Boxing 1951 Photographs of Integration Era Athletics and Competition
1951. U.S. Navy boxing photographs May 1951 document organized athletic competition within the Navy during the early implementation of military desegregation and provide direct visual evidence of African American participation in structured sports programs shortly after federal policy changes mandated integration. Created three years after President Executive Order 9981 these images record both interracial competition and institutional oversight within a branch historically resistant to integration. The archive situates athletic competition within broader efforts to build morale discipline and cohesion during the Korean War era supporting research into African American military history civil rights and the role of sport within newly integrated armed forces.<br /> <br /> Nineteen black and white silver gelatin photographs each approximately 8 x 10 inches official U.S. Navy images with May 1951 date stamps on versos depicting a naval boxing tournament held in a military arena. The photographs capture multiple fight sequences including mid swing punches defensive movements and clinches along the ropes as well as referees supervising bouts and trainers assisting fighters between rounds. Several images emphasize moments of impact with gloves connecting and fighters reacting in real time while others depict pre fight preparation including a boxer in a satin robe receiving instruction before entering the ring. Group portraits show teams of sailors including both African American and white participants posed in uniforms and boxing attire alongside officials and referees underscoring the organized and institutional nature of the event.<br /> <br /> Produced during a period of active military engagement in the Korean War these photographs document the practical realities of integration within everyday military life where athletic competition functioned as both training and public demonstration of unit cohesion. The presence of interracial matches and group portraits reflects evolving racial dynamics within the Navy while the structured environment of the tournament reveals how sport operated as a controlled space for recognition and advancement amid ongoing inequality. As visual records these images preserve the intersection of race military policy and physical culture at a moment when federal mandates and lived experience were still in negotiation. Light surface wear and minor handling marks with clear images and strong contrast; overall condition very good. unknown

African American Navy Sailors
African American U.S. Navy and Seabee Photograph Archive Documenting Segregated Naval Service and Wartime Training circa 1925-1940s
1920. African American Military Service African American U.S. Navy photograph archive documenting naval service segregation training and enlisted social life from the interwar period through World War II with direct evidence of how Black sailors and Seabees moved through the Navy's expanding but racially divided wartime structure. The group centers on studio and snapshot portraits of Black servicemen in dress and work uniforms including several real photo postcards from the 1920s and a larger body of 1940s material tied to wartime service. A press photograph dated November 23 1942 anchors the archive within the Navy's 1942 expansion of Black enlistment into general service and the wartime organization of segregated Black Seabee battalions on the East Coast. Black men entered the Navy under long standing racial restrictions before broader wartime openings began in 1942 and Black Seabees remained largely segregated even as their labor and training became essential to amphibious and construction operations during the war.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 14 silver gelatin photographs including 4 real photo postcards and one press photo various sizes ranging from 10 x 8 inches two 2 x 3 inches United States circa 1925 to 1940s. The most historically explicit image is a large Acme Newspictures press photograph showing Black Seabees disembarking from landing craft marked "USN 702" rifles raised as they train in surf; the typed caption on the verso reads in part "NEGRO SEABEES TRAIN IN LANDING OPERATIONS" identifies them as members of an "all Negro battalion" and bears the date November 23 1942. Other photographs shift from formal military portraiture to daily life: a large studio portrait of a smiling young Black sailor in a flat cap lettered "U.S. NAVY"; three interwar real photo postcards showing Black sailors in neckerchief jumper uniforms and in peacoat with flat cap one inscribed at front "Kansas City Mo" and "Adolphe J. Bell"; a headshot portrait with a cursive signature on the verso read as "Joe Louis"; three young sailors in white enlisted uniforms and white caps; three sailors posed indoors in dark dress uniforms; a mixed social table scene with ten people sharing food and drink including three Asian women and seven Black sailors in uniform; a domestic interior with a woman holding a child beside a sailor holding bottles; a casual image of a sailor in a recreation room with ping pong table; an outdoor snapshot near barracks or temporary buildings with servicemen and a dog; and a small vernacular image of three men one shirtless in tropical or warm weather surroundings. One real photo postcard is inscribed "Just to remember a pal - Stanely" and addressed to Lloyd S. Miller 219 Lexington St. Covington Virginia. Navy uniform history supports the archive's span across prewar and wartime decades from the flat hat and peacoat combinations in the earlier portraits to the white "dixie cup" caps and wartime enlisted uniforms in the later snapshots.<br /> <br /> The archive places Black naval service in view across two linked periods: the constrained interwar Navy when Black sailors were sharply limited by race and the wartime Navy after April 1942 when the service broadened Black enlistment while preserving segregation across much of its structure. Formal self presentation in studio portraiture named personal exchange through inscription and mailing address interracial or cross cultural off duty sociability at table domestic visitation barracks life recreation and a news service image of East Coast landing operations training. The 1942 Seabee press photo connects the personal photographs to a larger wartime system in which Black sailors were admitted into expanded service categories yet still sorted into segregated units and labor formations a tension now central to institutional collecting on African American military history and the history of segregation within federal service. Light to moderate wear throughout including edge wear creasing toning small losses corner softening surface abrasions and scattered staining; several images with fading or silvering and the press photo with caption label and agency stamp on verso. Overall in good condition. A compact concrete record of Black naval life before and during World War II with one dated press image and multiple inscribed vernacular portraits grounding the archive in both military policy and personal experience. unknown

African Americana. United States Navy
Two Panoramic Photographs of Company 771 Taken at the U.S. Naval Training Center in Great Lakes Illinois
Great Lakes Ill 1945. About very good. Two panoramic photographs 10 x 19.25 and 8 x 18.25 inches. Minor wear at corners; lower left corner of larger image partially stripped. Minor toning and dust soiling. A striking set of two panoramic photographs that comprise official portraits of African-American Naval Company 771 at the Great Lakes U.S. Naval Training Station at the end of World War II. The training center on the shore of Lake Michigan just south of Waukegan Illinois was the principal site for the training of naval recruits during World War II and the only location for Black recruits who were trained from 1942 through the end of the war at a segregated base within the larger facility called Camp Robert Smalls. The earlier of the two portraits dated July 24 1945 is a traditional group shot with the 127 men of the company kneeling and standing on bleachers. The second larger of the two images dated August 10 1945 calls the group the "Last Negro Company of Great Lakes Ill. Winners of All Competitive Flags" and shows the men standing in formation at attention in front of a training vessel. A fine pair of images. books

African Americans in the Navy
COLLECTION OF THIRTEEN REAL PHOTO POSTCARDS SIGNED BY AFRICAN-AMERICAN MIDSHIPMEN DURING WORLD WAR II
N.p. 1945. Thirteen silver gelatin real photo postcards each 5 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches. Moderate surface wear and silvering to some photos minor edge wear. Overall very good. A collection of thirteen real photo postcards featuring young African American Navy midshipmen serving or training during World War II twelve of which have been signed by the subjects in the margin below their photograph. Seven of the men have also added their address below their names while one serviceman inscribed his to "Mr. Strong." The sailors hail from a variety of locations namely Tennessee New Jersey Oklahoma Illinois Maryland and New York two from Brooklyn. The men are all posed likely against a studio backdrop and each is dressed in a blue uniform and white hat. <br> <br> The United States Navy was much slower to welcome African-American servicemen and integrate than the Army. In 1942 the Navy expanded service opportunities for African Americans beyond mess service and Camp Robert Smalls was created within Naval Station Great Lakes to host the first full albeit segregated training programs. The Navy began desegregating training in 1944 with the first thirteen African Americans becoming commissioned and warrant officers that same year the "Golden Thirteen". By 1945 all training was fully integrated. <br> <br> A useful group of photographs signed by African-American midshipmen of the Greatest Generation braving the American Navy during a transformative time in its history. unknown books
