		HM STEAM FRIGATE WARRIOR could outsail and outfight every Line-of-Battle Ship in existence at that time and this fact was recognised by the Admiralty Board who subsequently afforded her 3rd Rate Line-of-Battle Ship status on the basis of her 705 ship's company.
		By 1830 HMS WARRIOR, although still afloat, could neither move nor fight. She was saved by HMS WARSPITE, whose steering was jammed, steaming between her and the enemy and engaging the Battle Cruisers - two of which were subsequently destroyed or seriously damaged.
		HMS WARRIOR was taken in tow by the ENGADINE, a Seaplane Tender, at about 1900 but by 0500 next morning with her quarterdeck awash the WARRIOR was abandoned and then scuttled 160 miles east of Aberdeen. 70 of her Ship's Company did not survive the battle.

	Romanski Review: Summer 1999 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The transformation begins with HMS Warrior, whose “ultimate technology of 1860” was represented by iron hull and soft armor, broadside batteries of short-range guns, and dual propulsion of sail and box boilers to achieve a speed of fourteen knots.
		It concludes with HMS Dreadnought, whose all-steel construction, armored rotating turrets with guns that could “reach the horizon,” and a steam turbine plant (twenty-one knots top speed) defined big-warship character and capabilities in advance of World War I. The author documents meticulously the many influences that contributed to this transformation.
		Warrior to Dreadnought is the chronological companion to his earlier work, Before the Ironclad (1990).

		It has been suggested that Sir John Durston the Engineer-in-Chief of the Royal Navy, far from being scandalised, had done much to encourage Parsons and was privy to the demonstration39.
		At the beginning of the period they were fire- or smoke-tube boilers; heat was transmitted from the furnaces via tubes led through the water in a box or cylinder, in order to produce steam which was then led to the engine.
		It was helped not only by sophistication of design (particularly the cylindrical 'Scotch boiler’) but by the increasing use of steel in boiler construction and the general introduction of the surface condenser which, by reconstituting exhaust steam more efficiently into pure water, allowed a pure boiler feed and obviated the need for frequent blowing down.
