Hey all - anyone familiar with me knows I keep a massive google drive full of primary and secondary documents in numerous different languages,  on many different topics in the battleship era. Due to some of the secondary source material being in a legal gray area with copyright, I won't share the full drive here - buuuuuut of course, no such restrictions apply with the primary material.

The primary material is sourced from digitized national archives, private collections, or research trips done by professional or amateur researchers. The most recent addition is the trove of blueprints released by the French government, which i have unzipped and sorted by date for ease of access - previously they were all kept in their own individual .zip files :). the french files are largely kept in .tiff format due to them being upwards of 18k x 10k pixels for some images! there's plenty of ability to zoom into these extremely high quality images if you have a viewer.

Enjoy!
