TRIBALS, BATTLES & DARINGS: The Genesis of the Modern Destroyer
by Clarke, Alexander
1-242630
Details three classes of the Royal Navy: the Tribal class destroyers, heroes of the Altmark incident and the battle of Narvik; their wartime successors, the Battle class; and their postwar incarnations, the Daring class. Describes the three classes, each designed under different circumstances along destroyer lines but to general-purpose light cruiser form, from the interwar period through to the 1950s. Explains the procurement process for each class in the context of the needs and technology of the times. Analyzes these three classes side by side; examines their conception, their creation, and their operational stories; and provides an insight into ship design, operation, and culture. This book contains no illustrations.
