• Fully illustrated guide to naval warship development

Presented in a striking landscape format, Warships profiles 35 naval vessels from World War II to the present day, including cruisers, amphibious landing craft, aircraft carriers and destroyers.

From famous World War II vessels such as the Bismarck and HMS Hood to today’s hi-tech naval technology such as the USS Ronald Reagan carrier and the Sea Shadow stealth ship. Each vessel is presented in a unique seven-view format, showing not only the left and right profiles, top and front views, but also the view from the rear, and also from below.

The spectacularly detailed digital artworks, created in 3D then rendered as elevations, have never been published in book form before. With a detailed production and design history and full specifications, Warships is a must for modellers and naval enthusiasts alike.

About the Author Martin J Dougherty has written books on a variety of subjects including self-defence and warfare in addition to his work in the defence and security industry, where he is an expert on weapon systems and asymmetric conflict.
