When war broke out in 1939, only three true battlecruisers remained
in the Royal Navy including HMS 'Hood', the world's largest and
fastest capital ship for much of her life, which would be destroyed
in action against the German battleship 'Bismarck'. Out of the
remaining two battlecruisers ('Repulse' and 'Renown') one was sunk
by Japanese aircraft off Singapore, whilst the other served with
distinction until the end of the war. This book traces the pre-war
development of these spectacular warships, then describes their
wartime exploits, using this to demonstrate their operational and
mechanical performance. It examines what life was like on these
wartime battlecruisers when they sailed into action.
