Excerpt from The Naval Annual, 1912 Part I. Of the present volume contains the usual reviews of the progress of Navies and comparative strength, which, for the reasons already given, involve far more work for the Editor than was the case a few years ago. Lord Brassey offers some suggestions on Naval Ad ministration. Commander Robinson contributes an interesting account of the Italian naval operations, and Mr. Leyland's paper on Naval War Staffs gives an excellent survey of what is required for the British Navy. Mr. Richardson discusses machinery problems in high - powered warships. Sir William White, by special request, writes on a subject of which he is a master. Commander Robinson's work has been carried through in spite of serious illness. Mr Barnaby remains responsible for the plates of ships. Part IV., in addition to the usual matter, contains the First Lord's speech of March 18th, already referred to, and some papers regarding the Dominion Navies. After twenty-one years' work, the Editor had serious thoughts of discontinuing the publication of the Naval Annual. The book was started by Lord Brassey, in the first instance for the benefit of Naval officers, and secondly to bring together reliable information in convenient form to awaken general interest in the Navy. With these objects in view it has been continued by the present Editor. The Admiralty now circulate to Naval officers far more information than they did some years ago. Other Annuals have come into existence. The Navy League Annual, from being a cheap publication which it was well for the Navy League to issue, has developed into a volume in the style of the Naval Annual, and to some extent competing with it. There might therefore seem to be less reason for carrying on the Naval Annual now than in days gone by. But after consultation with Naval officers and others whose opinion was of value the Editor came to the conclusion that the book was of real service to the Navy and the country, and that the time and trouble devoted to making the information given as reliable as possible were not thrown away.
