The account was primarily compiled for the information of the United States Navy and was submitted by the writer to the Board of Control of the Naval Institute for revision. This was thereupon published in a series of four articles in the current quarterly Proceedings of the Naval Institute for June, Septem ber and December, 1912, and March, 1913. The type of these articles was distributed and in order to preserve the data in book form the four series of articles were reprinted in a limited edi tion for general circulation. The book contains the four articles that were published with considerable additional data, such as the complete account of the defences of the Dardanelles and Bosphorus taken from the J our nal of the Royal Artillery for January, 1913, embodying the translation from the Russian Artillery Journal by Lieutenant J. K. L. Fitzwilliams, Royal Horse Artillery on The Coast De fences of Turkey. The Honorable Philander Knox, Secretary of State, Washington, D. C., also kindly sent the writer the full text of the Treaty of Peace of Lausanne with the decree of the King of Italy and the Firman of the Sultan of Turkey. This treaty and accompanying documents are embodied in the ap pendik.
