Designed to accompany the collection of fourteen warship figureheads that will be displayed in the atrium of The Box at Plymouth from the spring of 2020, this book introduces each of the figureheads, giving details of its design, the ship for which it was carved and the actions that it witnessed when serving in the Royal Navy.To put these descriptions into perspective, early chapters tell the story of the development of warship figureheads over the centuries, the evolution of the figurehead collection at Devonport and the work of the figurehead carvers of Plymouth.As all the figureheads on display come from the Devonport collection, the Directory at the end of the book provides a summary of all the figureheads that have appeared at some time in the collection, their fate or where they are today.
