Cruisers of world war two : an international encyclopedia

Whitley, M. J.1995
Books, Manuscripts
Illustrated with hundreds of archive photographs and line drawings, Cruisers of World War Two is the large-format, comprehensive reference on the subject. Within one volume, it describes all the cruisers extant, completed or laid down during the period 1939-1945 by the nations of the world. Each class is featured with full coverage of its design, construction and subsequent modifications, together with tabulated details of builder, dates, specification data and notes on the fate of each ship. In format with the author's earlier work Destroyers of World War Two, this book is a major contribution to naval literature, which will enable historians, modellers and veterans to study the subject with an extra thoroughness and accuracy.
