Better than many much longer works. Covers every battle cruiser both built, started or planned by the UK and Germany through the end to WWI including Mackensen, E Yorck and Hood. Amazing how much great information, line drawings and analysis Campbell packed into a small 72 page book.
This work is essential for anyone wanting to see the battlecruisers of WWI examined and compared objectively and to see their careers outlined too. Campbell lists all action damage in details almost never seen in far larger works. This includes the ships lost, with details of the last known state, estimates of what happened and details of the repairs and alterations.
