A guide to the ships and aircraft of the fleet including photos and illustrations as well as the weapons.
Over 140 warships from 125 countries preserved as museums or memorials are detailed here. Arranged by country, each entry provides type and class (when appropriate), tonnage, armament, propulsion, speed, fuel capacity, crew, date launched, and other relevant statistics based on the ship’s era.
This is an important illustrated survey about the experiments with steam and the first Naval warships. For anyone interested in maritime history, especially Naval techniques, this will become a continually source of reference and enjoyment.
