DJ has some wear, soiling and sticker residue on front flap. Possibly the most interesting aspect of this, the eighth issue of Jane's, are the articles by combatants in the Russo-Japanese War, supplemented by a special series of photographs showing the ships destroyed and the extent of the damage suffered by others. There is a summary of naval actions during the war and notes on relevant strategy and tactics. All included are revised rules of Jane's "Naval War Games". This is a large and heavy book and would require additional shipping charges if sent outside of the United States. This is an annual reference book of information on all the world's warships arranged by nation, including information on ships' names, dimensions, armaments, silhouettes and photographs, etc. Each edition describes and illustrates warships of different national naval and paramilitary forces, providing data on their characteristics. The first issue was illustrated with Jane's own ink sketches--photos began to appear with the third volume in 1900. The present title was adopted in 1905. Its success launched a number of publications carrying the name "Jane's". Ten early editions of Jane's (those of 1898, 1905-06, 1906-07, 1914, 1919, 1924, 1931, 1939, 1944-45, and 1950-51) were reissued in facsimile reprints by Arco Publishing starting in 1969. All of these appeared in the oblong or "landscape" format until the 1956/57 edition, while from 1957/58 the present "portrait" layout was adopted, thus matching the sister Jane's publication on aircraft.

There is a brief biography of Ruggles on pages 65 and 66 and he is mentioned in the Association Roster of inactive members on page 90. After helping decommission the USS Antietam, CVS-36 Ruggles was sent to VR-24 in Port Lyautey in April of 1963. Worked on the flight line. Moved up to Rota that September after many flights across the Med hauling everything they could pull up, pick up, unscrew or unstick. Even took the swimming pool pumps and the diving board. After about three months at Rota on the flightline he was sent to the gas pool and drove those big yellow trucks for two years. Contents are: Association's Message, Publisher's Message, History of the USS Antietam, Special Stories from the USS Antietam, Veterans of the USS Antietam, Association Member Roster, and Index. This is primarily the history of the second United States Navy's warship to bear the name of the famous Civil War battle. There would be a third commissioned which would see action in connection with the Persian Gulf hostilities, but that is not the vessel memorialized in this work. Filled with many photographs from periods of deployment and photographs of crew members in later, civilian life. More
