The Naval Annual The Naval Annual was a periodical that provided considerable text and graphic information which had previously been obtainable only by consulting a wide range of often foreign language publications . It was started by Thomas Brassey, 1st Earl Brassey in 1886. Though often compared with Jane's Fighting Ships , the two British annuals were, in fact quite different. The Brassey series began a dozen years earlier, and its special strength was the dozen or more detailed articles on naval matters, authored by experts . They covered British and other nations' naval developments ranging from the latest ships to overall policy. The first five or six Brassey volumes used a second printing color to highlight armored portions of naval vessels' hulls. Through 1949, the series was also known for its extensive tabular presentations of individual ship details. But unlike Jane's , the Brassey series was not designed for use in identifying ships at sea . Starting with the 1950 volume, content broadened to cover air force and army topics in addition to naval material , with a continued emphasis on British forces . Long runs of the Brassey volumes are relatively uncommon in American libraries . During its life it underwent a number of title changes.Editors of Brassey's Annuals 1886–1992[Editors from 1886–1986 from''Ironclad to Trident'', p. v–vi.] ''Naval Annual'' 1886–1891 Lord Brassey 1892–1899 T.
