A real time passer; perfect for coffee tables and waiting rooms.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. good photosBy isaac levi marmorSolid beginner book; good photos6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. My favorite is the examination of the aesthetics and naming conventionsBy Bobby FlashpantsThis book is already becoming well-worn incidental (you know; bathroom) reading for me. I appreciate the placement of each ship in their design evolution context; and all of the relevant bits of their operation history. My favorite is the examination of the aesthetics and naming conventions; as well as seeing the evolution of these write ups since the Sunday Battleship Blogging series. Perfect for someone like me (a total non-academic) who has maintained a lonely fascination with these ridiculous machines since touring the USS North Carolina when I was 7.
