Annapolis, MD: Naval Institute Press, 2011. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. 432 pages. Very slight shelf wear, else fine. with fine dustjacket. Extensive appendices of ship data, and illustrated in depth with photos and finely detailed plans. The Royal Navy showed a particular interest in the cruiser, a multi-purpose warship needed in large numbers to defend trade routes and police the empire. In the proce3ss she virtually invented the heavy cruiser and inspired the large 6 inch armed cruiser, neither of which served her best interests.The final chapters cover modernizations, plans for missile armed ships, and the process that turned the through-deck cruiser into the Invincible class light carriers.
