Battleship Dreadnought John Roberts 9781844862061 | 16.99 | April | PB with flaps 200 drawings and 20 photographs | 160 pages 240 x 254 mm

• Conway’s acclaimed and bestselling flagship series published in paperback for the first time • Documents ships in incredible depth – literally down to the nuts and bolts This highly acclaimed series has for many years provided the finest documentation of individual ships and ship types ever published. It is a radical departure from the usual monograph approach, which concentrates on either the ship’s service history, its technical details or external appearance. All of these aspects are included in the ‘Anatomy of the Ship’, but what makes the series unique is a complete set of superbly executed line drawings – the conventional 3-view type of plan as well as explanatory perspective views with fully descriptive keys. These drawings are accurate, visually exciting and totally comprehensive, offering ship buffs, historians and modelmakers a novel insight into the technicalities of each ship type covered.
