Excerpt from Naval Handbook as Bearing on National Defense and the European War The questions answered are being asked daily by intelligent, even eminent men, whose work has lain along other than naval lines. The answers are based on ideas absorbed during two decades of naval ser vice. The explanations are correlated with admitted events of the war, to which frequent allusions are made. It may be unnecessary to add that the Handbook is strictly non-partisan, and is written from the standpoint of a discreet neutral. Matters of general naval knowledge have been selected as bearing on the war, known past events are touched on, and the reader is left to form his own opinions. The Hand book, though for the European war, does not attempt to pass judgments, argue, or predict. As bearing on the question of national defense, facts as to our own naval strength are emphasized but here again the Gentle Reader must draw his own conclusions.
