In this engaging volume, readers discover the amazing world of battleships, the biggest and most powerful military ships around. Detailed diagrams and vibrant images give a bird’s-eye view of all the parts and complex weaponry used on battleships, from early battleships that ran on steam up through aircraft carrier ships like the USS Nimitz and HMS Invincible. Readers learn how some of today’s aircraft carriers run on nuclear power, and how battleships throughout history have relied on heavy, high-tech weaponry to control the open seas.
