From the Preface:
"While the bulk of the Trust's activities will be devoted to annual grants to assist research or publication, it is important that the fruits of a lifetime's labour are preserved. In due course we hope that Geoffrey Osborn will complete the definitive work on mail sent to and from Bitish naval officers around the world in the Victorian era. His ability to identify both the sender and his location from the surviving envelope alone is legendary and the Trustees felt that this work should be preserved as it stands. The result is a Resewarch Paper which will be of interest to both naval and postal historians and, reflecting the personal nature of the study, Geoffrey's original hand-written descriptions have been retained. This publication will be launched on the occasion of the first Stuart Rossiter Memorial Lecture at the National Army Museum."
