Description
ShipCraft 33: British Light Cruisers 2 Town, Colony and Later Classes by Les Brown is a detailed reference guide for modelmakers. This second volume in the ShipCraft series focuses on the 'second generation' designs of Royal Navy 6-inch cruisers from the 1930s, featuring triple mountings. The book provides an in-depth history of these ships, including their development and changes over time. Lavishly illustrated with colour profiles, highly detailed line drawings, and scale plans, it also reviews available model kits, lists commercial accessory sets for super-detailing, and offers hints on modifying and improving the basic kit. A photographic gallery showcases high-quality models in various scales, while a section on research references provides further information. With its extensive visual information, this book is an essential resource for anyone building one of these famous cruisers.
