The Admiralty was replaced by the Admiralty Board in 1964, as part of the reforms that created the Ministry of Defence and its Navy Department (later Navy Command). Hydrographer Sir Archibald Day (18 July 1899 – 17 July 1970) was an officer in the Royal Navy and Hydrographer of the Navy from 1950-1955. He played an important part in planning the evacuation from Dunkirk in 1940. After the war, Day resumed his position as Assistant Hydrographer, and was appointed in 1950 as the Hydrographer of the Navy. He held this post until 1955 when he retired. Interestingly, Day wrote a history of the Hydrographic Service titled The Admiralty Hydrographic Service 1795-1919, which was published in 1967 as his final work. The book gives a summary of the earlier part of the period with a much more detailed account of the period from 1884-1919 with biographies of surveyors and tabulations of surveys and ships by year. *** Dimensions: 71 x 52 cm; 28 x 20 1/2 in Year: 1975 Publisher: Admiralty Place of publication: London Author: Sir Archibald Day Condition: Folded as issued, light stain and tear (1cm) on the lower edge. *** The item will be shipped in a cardboard tube.
