The key to surviving this site is to not say something which ends up as someone's tag line - Steelgrave

IIRC, Jane's started off as an attempt at creating a naval wargame of sorts, pre-WW2 ( or was it pre-WWI?).  Supposedly they realized that people were taking interest in the warship info & stats contained therein and began creating the World Navies book series afterward.  I thought it an interesting 'Chicken-or-the-egg' type of story but I haven't checked into the details or whether it was just rumor.
