The big-gun battleship served as a symbol of the ultimate power of the world's greatest navies beginning late in the 19th century and continuing into the Second World War. So historically important was this vessel that the arms race between Britain and Germany to build navies with larger, more powerful battleships was among the key sources of tension between those nations in the lead up to the First World War. In this book, veteran battleship crew members describe their unforgettable experiences.
