The loss of HMS Hood in 1941 was one of the most shocking and tragic episodes in the history of the Royal Navy. Built during the First World War, the Hood was the largest, fastest and one of the most handsome capital ships in the world. Early on in her career she was employed on several international assignments as a representative of the British Empire, and thus she became one of the most recognisable symbolds of the Royal Navy; her destruction by the Bismarck was received with shocked disbelief throughout Britain. This new in paperback edition features a full and detailed description of every aspect of HMS Hood, analysing the genesis of the design and its contemporary significance. The 'Anatomy of the Ship' series aims to provide the finest documentation of individual ships and ship types ever published. What makes the series unique is a complete set of superbly executed line drawings, both the conventional type of plan as well as explanatory views, with fully descriptive keys. These are supported by technical details and a record of the ship's service history.
