Quotes by D.K. Brown (?)

“Though Fisher was often to proclaim his choice of C-in-C as the new Nelson to win a new Trafalgar, it is more likely that he saw the cautious Jellicoe as a man who would play safe.”
― D.K. Brown, The Grand Fleet: Warship Design and Development 1906-1922

“The battleship died because it was far less capable than the carrier of inflicting damage on the enemy.”
― D.K. Brown, Nelson to Vanguard: Warship Design and Development, 1923–1945

“Wartime paints had a simple oil base and did not adhere well in Atlantic seas, particularly when applied to wet or dirty surfaces, and model-makers interested in the period are recommended to incorporate a generous measure of ‘rust’ in their work.”
― D.K. Brown, Atlantic Escorts: Ships, Weapons & Tactics in World War II
