This is the first volume in a series providing ship modellers with all they need to know about a famous class of warship and associated model kits.
In this volume, the author has chosen the German "pocket battleships" of WW2, the best known of which was the Admiral Graf Spee, scuttled after the battle of the River Plate in 1939. This innovative and infamous class of surface raiders has long been a popular subject for ship modellers, many manufacturers producing kits of the Graf Spee and Admiral Scheer and the rather different Deutschland. This book shows model shipwrights how to turn their kits into something really special, while its unparalled level of visual information is a superb source for the general warship enthusiast. 64 pages p/b
