Description: U.S. Battleships: An Illustrated Design History 1985 Ship Plans Reference U.S. Battleships: An Illustrated Design History by Alan Raven and A.D. Baker III The book features a unique look at U.S. Battleships. There is lots of interesting reference and historical documentation, a very neat book with lots of details. U.S. Battleships is one the most comprehensive references available on the entire development of U.S. battleships, starting in 1886, with Maine and Texas, continuing to South Carolina, the U. S. Navy's first dreadnought, through to the behemoth Montana-class of World War II, Friedman authoritatively analyzes the design and performance histories of this popular type. The long careers of the Iowa-class, including their recommissioning in the late Cold War, are covered. Like the other books in Friedman's design-history series, U.S. Battleships is based largely on formerly classified internal U.S. Navy records.
