Torpedo Boat Destroyers were the first destroyers of the Royal Navy in the 1890s. With their revolutionary concept of speed and destructive power they were first deployed against the French. The author looks at the development of these vessels up to the River Class of 1900, the German response, and developments in the USA. In a pocket at the back of the book there is a set of large scale plans for modelmakers of the turbine destroyer, Velox 1902.

Dustjacket, worn with small edge tears, text and boards very good. An exciting account of a British Royal Navy destroyer in World War II. Tasked with guarding vital Atlantic convoys and later commanding 'Hunter/Killer' groups, author Captain Donald MacIntyre (1904-1981) became a near-legend during the war, with 7 destroyed German submarines to his credit, as well as several U-boat captures. He also survived a torpedo hit and, after ramming a U-boat, successfully piloted the damaged ship back to safety.
