Description: This book is based on material collected over a period of twenty-five years, together with visits to Sweden, conversations and correspondence with many individuals over the same period. My interest in af Chapman began on my initial visits to Sweden in 1936 and 1937 when I was privileged to stay with a very charming and kind family in Karlskrona and had the opportunity of visiting af Chapman\s house at Skiirva. When I was in the British Government's service in Stockholm from 1940 to 1946 and in residence thereafter for some years, I became better acquainted with Chapman's work. References to Chapman in the literature on the development of the ship are many, but no account of his life and work has vet been published in English. Conversations at the United States Naval Institute's history symposia have suggested that this gap ought to be filled. This book is an attempt to fill that gap.
