Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Published by The Bodley Head of London in 1987. Hardcover. UK 1st edition. Book condition: Very Good. Dark blue cloth boards with gilt titles to spine. Inside pages are in good order. Dust Jacket condition: Very Good. Price unclipped. See photograph. Dims: 215mm x 140mm x 28mm. 256 pages. Built during World War II, the Shinano was, and remains to this day, one of the most remarkable war vessels ever constructed. At a displacement weight of over 75,000 tons, she was the biggest ship ever built to that time, with 18" guns that could hurl 4,000 pound projectiles over 25 miles. A battleship-converted-to-carrier, the Shinano was a military marvel that the Japanese hoped would reverse the war fortunes of an entire nation. On her maiden voyage she was escorted by three battle-savvy destroyers and manned by a crew of thousands. Who could have ever foretold that she would sink within days of leaving drydock?.
