Description
A very decorative and large chromolithographed plate showing all the effective strength of the British navy with the name and class of each ship shown beneath, except for the torpedo boats destroyers denoted by numbers.
The pate is dedicated to the Right Honourable Lord Charles William de la Poer Beresford (10 February 1846 – 6 September 1919). He was a British admiral and Member of Parliament.
He combined the two careers of the navy and a member of parliament, making a reputation as a hero in battle and champion of the navy in the House of Commons. He was a well-known and popular figure who courted publicity, widely known to the British public as "Charlie B". He was considered by many to be a personification of John Bull, indeed, was normally accompanied by his trademark, a bulldog.
