‘The National Maritime Museum has only gone and produced the ultimate book. Like HMS Dreadnought, all others are now obsolete ... Get this book. Clear the diary. Devour it.’ Dan Snow Drawing on the remarkable collection of original ship plans held by the National Maritime Museum, this accessible and highly illustrated book offers a stunning visual account of the history of the warship from the 17th to the 20th century. Providing both a historic and thematic overview of warship plans and design, this book chronicles the technical advances in the production of ships and reveals the exquisite artistry of the draughtsmen. Elaborate Victorian plans, that go beyond reference tools and can be considered works of art in their own right, are contrasted with more functional draughts created on linen and acetate, as well as blueprints. Showcasing plans for some of the most famous warships, as well as rare and unusual examples for ships that were never realised, the book links the advances in shipbuilding and design to wider social-historical considerations. The exploration of diverse topics such as captured warships and royal yachts are just parts of a comprehensive overview, with a selection of ‘In Focus’ sections presenting detailed case studies to explore important themes.
