Synopsis
Illustrated with more than 100 accurate artworks and photographs, this book offers a detailed guide to the most important battleships and battlecruisers to fight in the two World Wars. Explore HMS Dreadnought, the first of a class of fast, big-gun battleships developed at the beginning of the 20th century; see the great capital ships that traded salvos at the battle of Jutland, including the German battlecruiser Derfflinger, find out about the destruction of HMS Hood, which exploded after exchanging fire with the Bismarck, and which itself was sunk after a trans-Atlantic chase by torpedo bomber aircraft; and be amazed at the 'super-battleship' Yamato, which despite its size and firepower, made minimal contribution to Japan's war effort and was sunk by air attack during the defence of Okinawa., For centuries, battleships provided overwhelming firepower at sea. They were not only a major instrument of warfare, but a visible emblem of a nation's power, wealth and pride. The rise of the aircraft carrier following the Japanese aerial strike on Pearl Harbor in 1941 highlighted the vulnerabilities of the battleship, bringing about its demise as a dominant class of warship. This book offers a detailed guide to the major types of battleships to fight in the two World Wars. Explore HMS Dreadnought , the first of a class of fast, big-gun battleships to be developed at the beginning of the 20th century; see the great capital ships that exchanged salvos at the battle of Jutland, including the German battlecruiser Derfflinger , which sank the British battleship Queen Mary ; find out about the destruction of HMS Hood , which exploded after exchanging fire with the Bismarck, which itself was sunk after a trans-Atlantic chase by a combination of battery fire and aircraft-launched torpedoes; and be amazed at the 'super-battleship' Yamato , which despite its size and firepower, made minimal contribution to Japan's war effort and was sunk by air attack during the defence of Okinawa. Illustrated with more than 120 vivid artworks and photographs, Technical Guide: Battleships of World War I and World War II is an essential reference guide for modellers and naval warfare enthusiasts., Organised by class, Battleships of World War I and World War II offers a highly-illustrated guide to the main battleships used by both sides during the conflicts of the 20th century. Packed with 110 artworks with detailed specifications, it is a key reference for both naval modellers and WWI and WWII enthusiasts.
