This "Blueprint Series" of books are produced in conjunction with the British National Maritime Museum and, as the title and series name suggest, this is a collection of blueprints and associated technical information on various types of British Warship from WW2.
With regard to the previous review, this book is exactly what it says it is. Of course, original blueprints are, by their very nature, large and unwieldy and only a book with the most impractical dimensions could reproduce such documents on a scale of 1:1. For those who wish to get a closer look at the Blueprints contained within this book, however, all they need do is contact the British National Maritime Museum who do provide copies.
This is a large, hardback coffee-table book containing over 150 pages of solid technical information with one or two blueprints across almost every page (there are 80 altogether). In a very professional style, John Roberts analyses the design and function of these ships using a selection of original plans from the collection at the NMM.
The opening chapter on Warship Design in Peace and War, is followed by a detailed examination of; Capital Ships, Aircraft Carriers, Cruisers, Destroyers, Escorts, Submarines, Minelayers, Minesweepers, Monitors, Amphibious Vessels, Trawlers, Depot Ships, MTBs and Auxiliary AA ships. With a wide selection of blueprints from above, the side and specific sections, coupled with detailed information on building, armament, displacement, dimensions, machinery, compliment etc, this is a book for the seriously minded researcher who will find it quite invaluable.

It's a blueprint book; has no line drawings.
6. Juni 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
John Roberts authored several outstanding books, including "Battlecruisers" by Conway's. Although prominently labeled as a "blueprint" book, I was surprised to discover the photos of blueprints are unreadable. I mistakenly expected line drawings (which are outstanding in his Battlecruiser book); there are none here. Even the 2-page wide blueprints are unreadable; details & labels couldn't be read. The primary purpose of this book appears to be a compilation of blueprints, which are themselves, valuable & historical documents. In this respect, the is similar to an art book -- it replicates original source that is available only in a museum. The text doesn't contain new material, but it is valuable in that it more detailed than "survey" type books but less exhaustive than the in-depth "class" books such as Garzke's battleship series and Friedman's US Navy class ships series. The book covers major warship types that served during WWII, beginning with Rodney/Nelson class, with some reference to Queen Elizabeth class modernizations. I found the text most valuable in describing the design objectives & limitations rather than a description without context (example: HMS Rodney & Nelson are described within the Washington Treaty 35,0000 ton limitation). As I write this without the book in front of me, I don't recall seeing any photographs (besides photos of blueprints), which would be a major disappointment. It's difficult to pass up a book by such an expert as John Roberts, but this may be a candidate. I think the objective of the book is to display blueprint documents that readers could only see if they visited or had access to the Maritime Museum in Greenwich, UK. Had Roberts added a line drawing to each class (and an accompanying photo), I would recommend this book rather than give a marginal approval.
