This copy is in as new, unmarked condition bound in orange cloth covered boards with black titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper has some edge wear and a few closed tears so best described as very good condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Since the dawn of history men have fought for supremacy on the sea, and the evolution of the man-of war as an efficient fighting machine forms one of the most absorbing aspects of human achievement. In a book that is both decorative and informative, the authors trace the history of the man-of-war from its earliest known appearance as the oared galley of the Mediterranean to the nuclear submarine of the present day. This book is illustrated with over two hundred and thirty plates, drawings and plans taken from contemporary paintings, woodcuts and photographs. The full page plans show the most important milestones in the development of the man-of-war, and great care has been taken to ensure that they are both attractive and technically accurate. This is a valuable reference book for the professional, but it will also provide much enjoyment for those who know the fascination of ships and the sea. Ref BBB 1.

Illustrated dustjacket, unclipped, slightly rubbed to edges. Orange cloth boards with black titling on spine. Illustrated end papers. Neat inscription. pp273. Very well illustrated in colour & tone. Clean and tight. Since the dawn of history men have fought for supremacy on the sea, and the evolution of the man-of-war as an efficient fighting machine forms one of the most absorbing aspects of human achievement. In a book that is both decorative and informative, the authors trace the history of the man-of-war from its earliest known appearance as the oared galley of the Mediterranean to the nuclear submarine of the present day. The oared warships were the chief fighting vessels of ancient and classical times, but although they were later superseded by the sailing ship, they remained in use in the Mediterranean and the Baltic until the eighteenth century. Sailing ships became the most beautiful and long-lived warships of historical times. From the early single-masted longships of the Vikings, they blossomed into their full glory as the mighty galleons of the sixteenth century, and were a highly efficient and streamlined vehicle of war by the Battle of Trafalgar in 18 1 5 . The advent of steam spelled death to the sailing ship in warfare, and as new engines and better fuels have been developed, the warship of today has become a deadly weapon capable, by means of the nuclear warhead, of reaching targets on land and in the air as well as at sea. The use of weapons and developments in naval strategy are an integral part of the warship's history. Captain Macintyre describes inventions in weapons and missiles and their influence on ship design and discusses at every stage the major battles in which the ships were required to prove themselves. The book is illustrated with over i3o plates, drawings and plans taken from contemporary paintings, woodcuts and photographs. The full-page plans show the most important milestones in the development of the man-of-war, and great care has been taken to ensure that they are both attractive and technically accurate. This is a valuable reference book for the professional, but it will also provide much enjoyment for those who know the fascination of ships and the sea. Size: Obl 4to.
