British Warships designs since 1906 is a vigorous appraisal of the Royal Navy's ships and their effectiveness in combat. It considers the performance of ships in service as well as their design specifications, challenges the reputation of several vessels and types, and in particular examines the relationship between actual design and other features in the failure of warships to reach a satisfactory operational performance.
