These six battleships were all authorized in 1936 and were the first vessels built in the US since 1923. Consequently, these ships benefitted from enormous technological leaps, with improvements in ship design, power, armor, armament and the single most important improvement the use of radar guided fire control helping to change the course of the war in the Pacific. Packed with first-hand accounts, battle reports, and specially created artwork this book tells the story of these war-winning vessels.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 248mmItem Length: 184mmItem Width: 5mmItem Weight: 186gAuthor: Lawrence BurrIllustrator: Peter BullContributor: Peter Bull (Illustrated by)Genre: HistoryTopic: Military History, Law & PoliticsBook Series: New VanguardRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
