Building and delivery

I have worked over the first part of this article - it would seem that the edic delivery voyage was the most interesting thing the Childers did. I was disappointed to find two major errors in the material referenced to Tom Frame's "No Pleasure Cruise: The Story of the Royal Australian Navy" (the claim that the three ships were together at Malta, and the anticipation of General Gordon's death in Sudan by 9 months), and not having a copy to hand to verify the citations, I ignored it. However, if editors find it otherwise reliable, it could be re-introduced. - Davidships (talk) 11:16, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
