The first edition of this classic work on a typical V & W Class destroyer was published by the author in 1990 and quickly sold out. I offered to publish a new edtion but, sadly, the author Bob Moore died before its was completed and John Rodgaard agreed to take over. It was published in 2010 as a paperback and when it sold out a much enlarged hardback edition was published in 2017 and is now out of print but an e-book edition will be published in 2022. New material continues to be published on this website.
