Fifty Ships That Changed The Course Of Hardcover

The book is beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, due to poor packaging it is damaged and I do not have time to return it before my grandfather's birthday.

I'm always running out of gift ideas for my dad. I sent him this book for his birthday because I know he loves ships and he said he is enjoying it.

Great book. But TCG Nusrat, the mine layer ship in WW1 had to be in the book. She by herself changed the course of WW1’s eastern history. One of the largest battleship fleet in the world’s naval history could not pass through Dardanelles on March 1914 because of the great role of TCG Nusrat.

Not great

Given as a gift.

I am still reading the book.

My teenage son loved reading this book and still picks it up now after several readings already! It was the perfect gift for anyone who loves ships, boats, history, technical details, naval engineering etc. It is illustrated, but not in a childish way. It seems to have just the right amount of detail for anyone who wants to absorb knowledge about vessels and probably already knows a fair bit. There are enough anecdotal stories from history to stop it becoming too dry, while also having enough technical specifications to satisfy shipping buffs. The book is not oversized like many children’s versions- it’s about average book size and the hard cover makes the quality feel great. He received this along with a nautical navigation book, sailors hat and a calendar of the Royal Navy… he loved the gift and anyone else of a like-mind will also enjoy this book!

Absolutely gorgeous book. Excellent diagrams and photos, plenty of facinating information about each ship. Well worth purchasing. Was a gift, my dad just loves this beautiful book. 10 stars 🌟

Un gran libro, con una buena edición y encuadernación y muchas imágenes. Muy interesante, entretenido y bonito. Envío rapidísimo.Una buena compra, en definitiva.

I find this a good general overview of maritime history. There are a number of facts which were new to me. In general, I enjoy it as a good informative read. I am pleased to have it in my library.

My boy love the book - lots of info
