This book keeps afloat!
DIVE, DIVE!
I've been always a fan of seaships technology and this reference book is easily one of the best guides that you can find out there, since it covers all the best sea cruiser developed (to the date of publishing of course) around the world, not only military but also commercial ones.
The awesome USS Enterprise CVN-65 aircraft carrier, the cool Los Angeles-class nuclear submarines, the ever reliable Destroyer escort cruisers and even the fast PT boats, in here you have them all and more!
On each page, you have the technical details of a different sea cruisers along with color pictures and gorgeous and really cool schematics showing their designs.
There is not doubt that this comprehensive book will take to new altitudes in your personal knowledge and awareness about the powerful world of sea ships and the stuff related.
A must-have book to any fan of sea cruisers!
