There were 11 different classes of Heavy Cruisers created by the US before/during WW2. Part 2 covers the the last seven. An excellent blend of the history of US heavy cruisers, development of each class and what makes one different from the other. The B&W photos help show the gun positions, the lines of each class and there are two pages of color plates showing the camoflague schemes used during the war. Some of these photos show what like is like on a warship - mundane tasks such as refueling at sea, loading huge shells. Plenty of data and statistics, line drawings that show the planes, different weapons used (gun mounts from 20mm all the way up to 12" cannon), radar masts and missles (post WW2). A really great book for modelers and those who want to get an introduction of US cruisers that were built and used to great effect in WW2. |

The German equivalent of the American PT boat, Schnellboots are generally considered the best Motor Torpedo Boats of World War II. These formidable craft saw constant action from the first to the last days of World War II. Operating on every front they extracted a heavy toll of Allied merchant and Naval shipping. Authors Connelly and Krakow summarize the technical development of these formidable craft in this Squadron/Signal volume, #18 in their 'Warships' series. Though Germany had mixed success with MTBs in WWI, German strategists began developing a boat suitable for action in the North Sea in the early 1920s. Through the 1930s various S-class boats were built, eventually producing the S-38 class and its successors which gave such exemplary service in the North Sea, English Channel, Baltic Sea, Black Sea, Mediterranean Sea and the Barents Sea. Equipped with two-four torpedoes, 7.92mm machine guns, 20mm, 37mm and 40mm cannons, S-boats sank over 130 merchant ships, 13 destroyers and numerous other Allied watercraft. 'Schnellboot in Action' is an excellent introduction to the S-boats. Though operations are briefly summarized, the emphasis here is clearly on the technical development of these fearsome MTBs. Each class is covered in turn. Additional sections cover Engines, Main Armament, Secondary Armament, Radio, Navigation, Radar, Camouflage, Tactics and so on. Over 110 photographs and numerous diagrams along with four pages of Don Greer color artwork and profiles help tell the Schnellboot story. |

The book, like all books in the series, provides a general overview of the aircraft from both a historical and a technical features point of view. Each variant is discussed, including the planned (but unbuilt) F-105C and F-105E models. Obviously, a large portion of the text deals with F-105 action in Vietnam, but other lesser-known areas (operations with the Thunderbirds, for instance) are also addressed. The book is filled with black and white photographs and line drawings, and has several color illustrations that are well done. |
