An excellent objective account of RN Battleship actions in WWII. Peter Smith's writing style makes for an easy read, and is a book I could not put down. Contains sufficient and relevant photographs, all well reproduced and relevant to the story told, in both place and time. This volume was previously released as “The Great Ships Pass”: British Battleships in World War Two, so if you have that book, no need to buy this one.. it is the same bar the title. A thoroughly recommended read to anyone interested in RN battleships, and great to see it back in print!!
