Product Description

Product Description

This book discusses the concept of the Battlekreuzer. The German Groerkreuzers, as they were known, were built to strict financial limits, and therefore the German designs were always a compromise between the factors listed under design philosophy. Individual ship histories are detailed with particular emphasis upon their battle experience and deployment in conflict, and author Gary Staff includes a variety of official records and personal first-hand accounts will be used. The battlekreuzer had a remarkable ability to withstand battle damage, as demonstrated by the Goeben, which suffered five mine hits on one occasion. Full colour artwork plates and detailed line drawings and photographs support and enrich the engaging text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little book, 7 Jan 2009
By Robert Russell "picky person" (Hampshire UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's only a small book, but it's thorough and clear. The photos are not the usual readily available ones, and are not perhaps of the best quality, but this is more than made up for by the excellent line drawings and colour illustrations. If you want to know about this subject, start here.
