The Naval Review was published
throughout the Second World War (1939-45). A regular feature
of these editions (starting in the May 1941 issue) was the "Naval Diary
of the War" which recorded day to day events starting on 1st September 1939. The final diary was printed
in the November 1945 issue and ended on 20th September 1945.
The diary was compiled by Mr. F.E. McMurtrie, editor of "Jane's Fighting
Ships".
Apart from an unexplained gap 17th to 31st
July 1945, the 2,211 days 1st Sept 1939 to 20th Sept 1945 are
recorded in 1,812 entries. An index has been prepared of the 1,490 ships and 750 people who are mentioned by
name in the Diary.
