Title: Fighting Ships in the Age of Steam
Description: London, Arthur Barker Limited. 1978, 1st Edition. Hard Cover with dust jacket, 23cm.

Drawing on a wealth of original material he describes what went on behind the scenes in ships whose names have now become legendary - the Graf Spee, HMS Warspite and USS Enterprise plus many others. Good/Good in Protective Cover.
