Yup, that's him. Quite a guy for the nuts-and-bolts stuff in many eras.
He also wrote the compendium Naval Weapons of World War Two, from which www.navweaps.com takes a lot of their information. Conway Press's Warship series included a long series of articles by him, 'British Naval Guns'. I only wish he'd done other navies' guns, and that he had lived long enough to complete the companion piece he was rumored to be writing: Naval Weapons of World War One.
