This volume contains weekly intelligence summaries compiled Naval Intelligence on behalf of the Naval Staff and Admiralty during the Second World War.

Each summary is divided into five sections: section one covers the war at sea; section two includes articles on a wide range of subjects thought to be of interest to officers; section three comprises political intelligence reports organised alphabetically by country; section four consists of naval intelligence reports, with a focus on the disposition of main units; and section five concentrates on merchant shipping and supply lanes.
