Title: British & empire warships of the Second World War
First published: 1998
Description: I am the author's son. I was my father's agent on what turned out to be his "magnus opus" and last work. Book 43. Henry Trevor Lenton was born in Rangoon in 1924. My family ran a buisness out there for many years. This book was his life's work and he was meticulous with reagard to its detail driving his long suffering agent to drink and the great publisher Lionel Levanthal to exasperation. It is the definitive work on the period and I am looking for suitable research students to help me produce the second edition. We have given my father's archives to the World Ship Society so they are all in one place together with all the photographs. So the challenge; we need to update this book and then produce the next book to take us from 1945 to 2000. I can be contacted on +44 (0)1628 890130 and chris@lenton.com
