The Naval War College Review is an unclassified, professional publication put out by the Naval War College. While the majority of articles contained in the NWCR will be "too much in the weeds" for the purpose of gaming, some may be of interest to gamers and historians. Previously mentioned authors such as Hughes and Vego regularly publish in the NWCR.

And talking of books going up in price - I checked the other day how much it would cost me to replace my complete set of Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships. The answer made me feel faint - at least double what I paid for them and I thought that was bad enough.
