Battleships of the Bismarck Class: Bismarck and Tirpitz: Culmination and Finale of German Battleship Construction - Brossura
Sinossi
The warships of the World War II German Navy are among the most popular subjects in naval history, and one of the best collections is the concise but authoritative six volume series written by Gerhard Koop and illustrated by Klaus-Peter Schmolke. Each book contains an account of the development of a particular class, a detailed description of the ships, with full technical details, and an outline of their service, and are heavily illustrated with plans, battle maps and a substantial collection of photographs. The first five volumes of this much sought after series are now available in paperback, with the sixth volume German Light Cruisers of World War II, planned for release in the fall of 2014. The first volume in the series is devoted to the Bismarck and the Tirpitz, the German Navy's most famous warships of World War II. Each was superbly equipped and carried the highly effective armament of eight 15 inch guns. Not only did they pose a very real danger to the ships of the Royal Navy, but they were also a serious threat to Britain's transatlantic trade. This volume traces the development of the class from inception to destruction and provides detailed technical specifications for the ships with notes on design and layout as well as their service histories. This lavishly illustrated book is a complete and indispensable guide to these two extraordinary warships.

Trade paperback. Condizione: Very good. Klaus-Peter Schmolke (illustratore). 159, [1] pages. Illustrations (photographs and diagrams). Includes Foreword, Bibliography, Index of ships, and About the Authors. Also includes chapters on Development and Construction (Bismarck Class Technical Layout, and Scale Plans); The Battleship Bismarck (Origin of the Name; Otto Furst von Bismarck); The Battleship Tirpitz (Origin of the Name: Grossadmiral Alfred von Tirpitz); and Conclusions. This is part of the Warships of the Kriegsmarine series. A short biography of the personality after whom each ship was named is followed by a comprehensive selection of photographs, preference being given to those rarely seen previously or appearing in a publication for the first time. Gerhard Koop served in the Kriegsmarine in the Second World War and then in the postwar Federal German Navy until his retirement in 1981. He was a widely published author on naval technology and maritime historical subjects, as well as translating many English-language navel books into German. Perhaps his greatest achievement was a series of six volume--of which this is one--covering the major surface warships to the wartime German navy. This classic work is widely regarded as the best concise story of the development, design details, and careers of the most powerful German battleships. This new edition includes additional photographs (over 200 photographs, plans, and maps), as well as a detailed service history of both battleships. The warships of the World War II German Navy are among the most popular subjects in naval history, and one of the best collections is the concise but authoritative six volume series written by Gerhard Koop and illustrated by Klaus-Peter Schmolke. Each book contains an account of the development of a particular class, a detailed description of the ships, with full technical details, and an outline of their service, and are heavily illustrated with plans, battle maps and a substantial collection of photographs. The first volume in the series is devoted to the Bismarck and the Tirpitz, the German Navy's most famous warships of World War II.

Not only did they pose a very real danger to the ships of the Royal Navy, but they were also a serious threat to Britain's transatlantic trade.
