Archives

The Liddell Hart Centre for Military Archives.

Located at King's College, London, the Liddle Hart Centre is home to the papers of perhaps a dozen admirals of the Dreadnought Era.

Websites

Please Note: The Editors and the Owner of Tone's Fighting Ships are not responsible for the content of these sites. They are included here as a further source of information.

Mr. Paul Benyon's Page

Large website covering many, many different aspects of the Edwardian and First World War Royal Navy.

GWPDA: The War at Sea

Website hosting various documents and articles related to the war at sea in the First World War.

Navy Things

Website written by a former Fleet Chief Petty Officer in the Royal Navy. Covers various aspects of the Royal Navy over the last three centuries.

NavWeaps

A website devoted to "Naval Weapons, Naval Technology and Naval Reunions". Features much detail on hundreds of naval weapons. The data should really be footnoted, but I doubt that the editor can afford to do that with a decade's worth of work.

Oxford Dictionary of National Biography

The O.D.N.B. has a large number of potted biographies of British naval officers and politicians in its database. Many of these are hopelessly biased and based on incomplete research. The archive of original Dictionary of National Biography articles, which are far more neutral, is of much greater historical value.

Haze Gray: Dictionary of American Fighting Ships

Early version of this comprehensive official history of individual United States Navy warships.

Royal Navy Rank Insignia of the Great War

A well-designed representation of Royal Naval rank insignia at the turn of the 20th Century. Currently offline.

Internet Forums

Warships1 and NavWeaps Discussion Board

Broad discussion of battleships, their history, and their armament. Users often descend into heated debate. A companion to the NavWeaps website.

Great War Forum

Forum devoted to the British Army, but does have sub-forums devoted to other aspects of the First World War, including one on "Ships and navies." There are a number of knowledgeable users, but many will be put off by the shocking haughtiness of some of them.
