Rezension aus Deutschland vom 26. Dezember 1999
The Battleships trilogy by Garzke and Dulin is probably one of the most meticulously researched books on warships ever. The authors are naval architects and one of them is a former naval officer, so they know their subject inside and out. The drawings are certainly impressive and very useful to any modeler or historian of the subject.
The projected designs of battleships never built by the major naval powers is a distinctive feature of this series and certainly interesting, considering that many of these designs were paper studies. The bibliography of the books show the tremendous research put in by the authors, who spared no effort in writing to eminent naval researchers abroad. A must buy!
Rezension aus Deutschland vom 16. April 1998
Another volume of the outstanding Battleship trilogy by these two authors; accompanies Axis Battleships and U.S. Battleships. This 3 volume set has to be one of the cornerstones of any Warship library. It's hard to imagine improving on it: It has unmatched technical detail balanced by overall strategic and political context, excellent summaries,outstanding pictures and superb line drawings, and is, in short, everything any naval history buff could ask for. The only criticism I can think of is that the slip cover for the U.S. book doesn't match the other 2 volumes, of which this particular book is part! But who cares about the slipcovers when the contents are so rich? I've had this 3 volume set for years, and although I consult them often, I will basically never be finished: you simply come back time and again to drink up more.

5,0 von 5 Sternen So you want to know about the Axis Battleships?
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 15. Dezember 2016
This is the source work for Axis battleships, in english. My copy was unfortunately rather ugly and in pretty rough shape. I bought it used no dust jacket and slight wear is ok...Folded pages a cover thats gonna fall off and heavily worn is not. Not the books fault, i say this because this book is hard to find sometimes going in and out of print and getting it used is better than not getting it at all. Also when its new its pricey, but worth it.
Okay enough cautioning. Its a thick and heavy book with no need for an introduction to battleship scholars, indeed the authors are probably the most erudite on this highly specialized and nuanced subject anywhere today, and this volume does not dissapoint i had expected that since the authors wrote the best book on US and on Allied Battleships as well and the other 2 volumes in this series. The phottographs are about as good as you can expect for 1930's and 40's cameras and there are far more than i have seen of all the ships described, Yamato since there were never many to begin with since it was strictly prohibited by the IJN, still has some i had not seen and also a bit bigger clearer and less cropped than i had seen, nice. Bismarck is well covered too, and Tirpitz by inclusion in class of course, and even better than the way over hyped misunderstood Bismarck and Yamato classes is a chapter on the H class as well. So every Axis capital ship built after 1930 (plus Spain) and some if not all the most important projected Axis capital ships are covered in good detail, stats, schematic plan drawings and pictures. Now this is not by any means an exhaustive coverage of the other 10 IJN battleships besides the Yamato and Musashi thsoe were all built before 1930 and are only slightly covered, same with anything German or Italian pre Scharnhorst or Vittorio Veneto. Its 517 pages total, gonna take awhile to read it all. Hard to stop looking at the pictures and drawings to start reading. Amazing photos, to me anyway.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Expensive, but very detailed and comphrensive
Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 22. März 2013
Everything technical and historical about British and French battleships of WWII. Also included are battleships and battle cruisers designed, but not completed, including those from the Netherlands and Soviet Union. U.S. battleships, although part of the "Allies" are not included, as they are treated in a separate volume. Battleships that fought in WWII, but were build before the 1930s, including the British "Nelson" class, are NOT included. The depth of description is amazing, but laid out in a consistent way, so it's easy to find what you need. The description and analysis of battle damage is also extraordinary. This is definitely, probably the definitive, reference book on the subject and not a novel. Compared to the other two books in the series ("Axis Battleships" and "US Battleships"), this book is very expensive, although it is not longer. Possibly it's rarer. If you are "into" WWII battleships, this book is a must have.

Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 3. März 2016
This one of the books that I wanted since childhood. Its full of facinating facts, diagrams and provides a general summation of the design and effectiveness which is lacking in some books about the same topic.

Well worth the price. If it becomes available grab it.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Painstakingly Detailed
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 10. Juni 2013
This book describes the technical details of Axis (German, Japanese, and Italian) battleships and a battleship class designed, but not built, by neutral Spain. Battleships designed, but not built, by the Axis powers are also included. The book is 523 pages long and resplendent with photographs, line drawings (many fold-outs), diagrams, and individual ship histories. Note that not all Axis battleships active in World War II are described: only those designed/built after the "battleship building holiday", (1930 - 1935). World War I battleships that were also active in World War II are ignored. Battleship guns, armor, machinery, antiaircraft defenses, torpedo defenses as well as the design process of these ship classes are described in exquisite detail. The individual ship histories are also vary detailed, including battle damage analysis.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Condition of book and on time delivery
Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 20. Januar 2021
This book came on time, and it is in impeccable condition. This book is great for naval buffs. The other two books by Garzke complete his trilogy on dreadnoughts. It is a must read book for those who love these warships.
