Call this a handbook to another military industrial complex, as the authors examine the businesses that built the Royal Navy, and the huge endeavor that won the naval race with Germany prior to 1914. Liberally illustrated with photos of all phases of construction, more heft is given this work as Johnston & Buxton examine the elements of cooperation and competition between these enterprises; including how the armor makers were able to collude in sponging more money from His Majesty's show more Government. Well worth reading if one is interested in the commercial side of naval power. show less
