Synopsis
Excerpt from Gruson's Chilled Cast-Iron Armour
Armour is acknowledged by all the leading authorities to be a necessity for the defence of positions of such importance, that the safety of the State would be compromised by their loss or destruction, and a perusal of the following pages will show that in presence of the tremendous attack capable of being delivered by the heavy guns now carried by ships of war, no other system of armour offers a security approaching to that given by the Gruson Chilled cast-iron Armour.
