Warspiteby - Ballantyne, IainWarships of the Royal Navy 2001, United States Naval Inst. ISBN 1557509883 Hardcover Descripton: From the publisher: No warship name in British naval history has more battle honors than Warspite. This book examines the careers of all eight vessels to bear the name since 1596, but concentrates on the seventh vessel--the dreadnought battleship conceived as the ultimate answer to German naval power during the pre-World War I arms race. HMS Warspite fought off the entire German fleet at Jutland, survived a mutiny between the wars, and covered herself in glory during World War II. |
