The Royal Navy Day by Day, a magnificent chronicle spanning 500 years of the Senior Service, is presented as a diary of daily events, becoming a beloved and familiar part of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines. It serves as the primary naval history reference book utilized daily across the Fleet. Within these pages, not only are great battles documented, but also minor actions by small ships, as well as the invaluable contributions of sailors, Royal Marines, WRNS, aircrew, submariners, and RFA and Merchant Navy personnel, spanning generations. This book also delves into the Royal Navy's own story, recounting its encounters with the sea, adversaries, and Admiralty, as well as the traditions, customs, quirks, and eccentricities that have shaped its identity. While it pays tribute to the Royal Navy, it is important to note that it is not a comprehensive company history. Instead, it selectively highlights a few instances of the Navy's achievements and mishaps, which further enhance the credibility of its remarkable record.

Published in 1979, this fifth edition of The Royal Navy Day by Day has undergone a thorough revision and update, incorporating numerous fresh images. It is widely distributed to all HM ships and establishments, ensuring that the legacy of the Royal Navy is cherished and preserved for generations to come.
