For quite a considerable number of years a book has appeared annually entitled Warship.It is published by Conway.Does anybody have an index as to what articles appear in each volume?

The Warship Annual was originally Warship Quarterly, starting in 1976. I have several of the original issues, and several more of the collected book versions. It became a yearly book in 1989.

I know of no published index. I have made one of my own, but it only covers the first nine collected volumes (1976-1984), and I'm missing some of those as well. I could send you a copy of what I have, but that's obviously not to many right now.

Unfortunately the books themselves are in storage, but here are the locations of the articles I've catalogued so far.

'B' Class Submarine vol 5
Submarine E-31 vols 9-10
'K' Class Steam Submarines vol 2
'M' Class Submarines vol 7
HMS Milne, 'M' Class 1942 vol 3 (Sub or DD? I didn't bother to check online)
'T' Class Submarines vol 3
X-1, Cruiser Submarine, 1923 vol 6

Mind you, I only have volumes 1 (1976), 2, 3, 5, 6, 9 & 10.

Oh, good show! I've known about The Dreadnought Project for years, but haven't been there in awhile.
