    Time-Life Books series The Seafarers: The Dreadnoughts. The lessons of the Battle of Tsushima during the war between Russia and Japan in 1905, where long-range fire decided the outcome, were not lost on the British Admiralty. The result was the creation of the H.M.S.

This book has a stale scent but is in great condition.
