Description

1906-1945 saw the power of artillery at sea challenged by torpedo boats and submarines, and later by aircraft. Taking the decline of the all-big-gun battleship as its main theme, this book charts the development of all warship types of the period, from the aircraft carrier to small costal vessels.
