BOOK REVIEW: Naval Archives – Volume 07

By Neil Baird - April 3, 2018.

Edited by Damien Majsak

The seventh volume of this rather amazing series of 3D renderings of famous warships. This one focuses on a range covering the British battleship HMS Warspite, the American Grumman Avenger carrier aircraft, the German U 387, the multi-national Last Classic Destroyers, and The 21^st Century Russian Fleet. Plenty to interest any warship history tragic.

While the 3D renderings make for interesting viewing it is the potted histories, 2D drawings and ordinary black and white photographs that kept this reader interested and entertained. The whole series presents as simple accessible naval history.

Available from Kagero Publishing, Lublin, Poland.
