The World of the Battleship
This new volume is intended to present a global vision of the development of the world's battleships. In a collection of chapters by international, the design, building, and career of a significant battleship from each of the world's navies is explored that illuminates not just the ships but also the communities of officers and individuals that served in them and, more broadly, the societies and nations that built them. Each chapter explains the origins of a ship, her importance as a national symbol, and her place in the fleet. This is a highly original and significant book on the great capital ships of the world.
Schnellboote
“A detailed account of the fast patrol boats built and used by the Kriegsmarine during WWII . . . a book for every naval history enthusiast.”—Firetrench The Kriegsmarine’s Schnellboote—fast attack boats or S-boats to the Allies—were the primary German naval attack units in coastal waters throughout the Second World War. Operating close to their various bases they became a devastatingly effective weapon in nearly all the Kriegsmarine’s theatres of war, from the Baltic to the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. It was in the English Channel, however, that they scored their most notable successes, destroying some forty warships and more than one hundred merchant ships. In addition to...

Destroyers
On July 4, 1991, the Arleigh Burke class of destroyers, the most powerful surface combatants in naval history, was commissioned. It was the culmination of a century-and-a-half evolution of the destroyer—an evolution captured in this vivid and timely history of the world's most popular warship. Destroyers: An Illustrated History of Their Impact tells the story of one of the most-recent, most-rapidly evolving additions to the world's navies. Coverage ranges from the 1882 launch of the first destroyer, through the nonstop technical and strategic innovations of the world war eras, to the current high watermarks of destroyer design such as the Arleigh Burke class (named for the navy's most-famous destroyer squadron combat commander). With its ship-by-ship analysis, this masterful volume shows how destroyers have continually met the challenge of protecting naval and land operations from ever more dangerous attacks. The book also captures the flavor of shipboard life for officers and crew and looks at the crucial role of the destroyer as a standard-bearing status symbol of naval might and political intention.

La Sisena Flota a Barcelona
Quan els mariners nord-americans envaïen la Rambla: la crònica apassionant d'una Barcelona llegendària. Va haver-hi un temps en què els vaixells de la Sisena Flota nord-americana que solcaven el Mediterrani feien escala a Barcelona. A partir del 1951, la Rambla i el barri Xino es van omplir d'uns mariners amb diners a la butxaca i una flaire d'excentricitat. Les dones els estimaven, els homes els envejaven i les criatures els empaitaven pels carrers demanant-los xiclets i xocolata. La part baixa de la ciutat va viure una època daurada: meuques, comerciants, hostalers, sastres o taxistes, tothom va aprofitar aquella pluja de dòlars. I així va néixer una indústria turística que encar...
