19100002026Very Good. 1910. On offer is a superb group of five 5 manuscript books encompassing the history of submarines and underwater naval warfare from 1901 through to 1971.

Adding even further depth there are tucked and tipped in one of a kind access original photos postcards and news clippings all relating to Submarines. Very comprehensive Honeywill used a wide variety of sources over 100 referenced covering 70 years of naval history besides the breadth of his own hands on experience and personal knowledge.

1923 - 1945 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A LIFE UNDERWATER FROM THE UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE OF THE ENGINE ROOM WRITTEN BY A BRITISH ROYAL NAVY WARRANT ENGINEER HISTORIAN AUTHOR AND 'PLUMBER'

19230002027Very Good. 1923. On offer is a super manuscript relic of one man's life spent in the Royal Navy serving in submarines for 22 years. Titled 'SHUT OFF FROM DIVING 1923-1945 The Ramblings of a Plumber' the book was written by British Warrant Engineer Leslie Honeywill who was a Chief Engine Room Artificer CERA or a plumber as he jokingly called himself on a number of submarines. Leslie writes in his intro: 'The material used in this story has been extracted from diaries written during the period covered. It is thus chronological and consequently rather disjointed in its presentation. It will have little interest except to submariners and probably not a lot for those who are or were. It contains no excitements but is an attempt to portray how one submariner enjoyed life met and overcame problems enjoyed the companionship of some wonderful friends - if the contents are mainly connected with the engine room department that of course was my particular concern but we were a team from the youngest seaman to the CO and no one could have wished for a more satisfying life.' The 463 page book on large typed paper is overall VG. We offer separately Honeywill's history of submarines - 0002026; book titled 'PERISCOPE PERSONALITIES 1901-1972' - 0002029 and another book titled 'SUBMARINE DEPOT SHIPS BASES & SUPPORT SHIPS' - 0002028.; Manuscript; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF LESLIE HONEYWILL BRITISH ROYAL NAVY SUBMARINES ROYAL NAVY SUBMARINE SERVICE RNSS SUBMARINERS SEAMEN SAILORS NAUTICAL MARINE NAVAL COMBAT AT SEA C.E.R.A.

Since the construction of Holland I for the Royal Navy in 1901 about 50 major ships. etc; have been employed on submarine support duties; in addition there is a host of lesser units and shore establishments which have played a no less important part. Many of the 'older' supports have been perpetual at 'Dolphin' by having their names allotted to blocks of buildings there:- Hazard Rosario and Pandora spring to mind. The larger units have been arranged chronologically whilst the lesser but none the less essential ones have been arranged alphabetically in an Appendix. Naturally many important events have never been recorded but older submariners may derive some pleasure in filling in the gaps when 'reminiscing' on these faithful old 'Mums'.
