Description
The HMS Dreadnought: A Revolutionary Warship Launched in 1906, the HMS Dreadnought was a game-changing warship that transformed battleship design for generations to come. Built in just 14 months at Portsmouth, she set a record that would remain un beaten. When she was launched, the Dreadnought was unmatched in firepower and speed, with a radical design that included Parsons turbines, a technology that had only been tested in limited form. Despite seeing little action during her career, the Dreadnought's influence was profound, shaping the high seas for over a century. This book, part of the Anatomy of the Ship series, provides a comprehensive look at the Dreadnought, featuring superb line drawings, technical details, and a record of her service history. With its unique blend of technical information and historical context, this book offers a fascinating insight into one of the most significant warships of the 20th century.
