Fully illustrated in a striking landscape format, Ships contains
300 mercantile and military vessels arranged in chronological
order, from ancient times to the present day. Every type of vessel
from every part of the world is featured, from Phoenician war
galleys from 1500BC, through the graceful trading clippers of the
nineteenth century, to the sophisticated and heavily armed
submarines of the nuclear era. In these information-packed pages
you will find out about ancient galleys, Viking longships, medieval
cogs, galleasses, galleons, men-of-war sailing ships, coastal
gunboats, iron-clad steam boats, dreadnoughts, aircraft carriers
and nuclear submarines. Many well-known ships are included, such as
Nelson's flagship HMS Victory, the ill-fated passenger liner
Titanic, the infamous German World War II battlecruiser Bismarck
and many, many more. Each ship is illustrated with a colourful
artwork, while lively text offers a concise service history of the
ship and a specification box provides comprehensive technical data,
including displacement, dimensions, machinery, armament, speed and
complement.
