Monograph on HM Post Ship Perseus

[Thukydides]

Attached is the latest draft of my monograph I am writing to document my research on HM Post Ship Perseus. This research is the companion to the model I am building and a build log can be found here. For those who were following along with my Perseus log prior to the MSW crash, all of the research I had previously document along with detailed citations can be found in this latest draft.

New in this version:

• Additional sections on the bollard timbers and armament
• Updated transcriptions for the text of the sphinx class plans correcting numerous errors and omissions
• A number of additional potential contemporary depictions of sphinx class ships
• Numerous fixes and corrections to errors

Please let me know if you have any questions or corrections.
