TORPEDO: THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF THE WORLD'S MOST REVOLUTIONARY NAVAL WEAPON
Published by Seaforth Publishing. 1st. 2014
Nearly fine condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper. The torpedo was the greatest single game-changer in the hsitory of naval warfare. It allowed any small, cheap torpedo-firing vessel - and by extension a small, minor navy - to threaten the largest and most powerful warships afloat. This book is a broad-ranging international history of the weapon, tracing not only its origins and technical progress down to the present day, but also its massive impact on all subsequent naval wars. Large format. Grey cloth boards, silver title to spine. B/w photos and illustrations. 256 pages including index.
A lovely copy!
