Books on the collective subject of Ships Figureheads both Naval and Merchant are relatively rare, only a hand full have been published in the United Kingdom during the past ten or more years, books on the more specific and detailed subject of British Naval Figureheads are rarer still, retired Rear Admiral David Pulvertaft has been researching into British Naval Figureheads for over fifteen years, during that time he has been able to build up a vast collection of related material.
