Warship is a celebrated annual publication featuring the latest research on history, development, and service of the world's warships.
A celebrated annual publication featuring the latest research on history, development, and service of the world's warships. For 45 years, Warship has been the leading annual resource on the design, development, and deployment of the world's combat ships. Featuring a broad range of articles from a select panel of distinguished international contributors, this latest volume combines original research, new book reviews, warship notes, an image gallery, and much more, maintaining the impressive standards of scholarship and research with which Warship has become synonymous. Detailed and accurate information is the keynote of all the articles, which are fully supported by plans, data tables, and stunning photographs. The varied topics in this year's annual includes articles on the Imperial Japanese Navy carriers Soryu and Hiryu, post-war radar development in the Royal Navy, gunboats in the Imperial German Navy, Soviet battleship designs of the early Second World War, modern European frigates, and the origins of the Yokosuka naval yard.
The authoritative contributors, along with the sheer level of research that's clearly been undertaken, continue to make the annual editions of Warship a genuine and reliable source of information for anyone interested in naval history and current development trends. -- Dave Woolley * Modelboats *
This is a book aimed at the specialist naval reader looking to extend the breadth of their knowledge in an enjoyable manner. -- , * Army Rumour Service *
For those interested in the history and development of world navies, it’s an annual treat with high production standards. -- Chris May * The Armourer Magazine *
A superb collection of fascinating essays, beautifully presented and published this series never fails to deliver- and Jordan has already planned next year’s edition! Very highly recommended. -- Peter Wykeham-Martin * Warship World *
The book is handsomely produced and is extensively furnished with a large number of black and white photographs. It also benefits considerably from some unusually clear line drawings of ship layouts, equipment and charts, many of which have been drawn by the Editor. This was an enjoyable read, with informative articles written by authoritative contributors. Recommended! -- REAR ADMIRAL R. G. MELLY * The Naval Review *
