About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from The Londons of the British Fleet: How They Faced the Enemy on the Day of Battle and What Their Story Means for Us to-Day The interest attaching to the Londons of the British Fleet is twofold. First, there is the interest which belongs to the name itself, because of its direct connection with the capital of the Empire, and as that of a famous group of men-of-war of the Royal Navy. The name, indeed, has a claim of its own on our regard; instinct with noble and inspiring traditions and many illustrious memories. The man-of-war name London belongs to a set of "territorial" names - if the term be permissible - that can boast a notable ancestry, and were the first favourites with the hard-fighting tars of the "Old Navy" from the days of Blake to the days of Rodney, when Nelson was a young post-captain. The associations of such names can be made to have a real and a practical use nowadays. They undoubtedly help in stimulating our general interest in the Royal Navy, and in keeping before us the all-important fact, how "it is on the Navy, under the good Providence of God, that our Wealth, Prosperity, and Peace depend."
