Stille.Despite conventional wisdom suggesting that battleships would play a huge role in the Pacific, they were instead relegated to secondary status &#8212 indeed, they clashed only two times: at Guadalcanal in 1942 and Surigao Strait in 1944. This engaging study, featuring full-color artwork and archive photographs, examines American battleships versus their Japanese counterparts (with particular attention paid to those who fought head-to-head, including the USS Washington, USS South Dakota, IJN Kirishima, IJN Yamashiro, IJN Fuso, and more). 80 pages, illustrated, 7¼”x 10″, softcover.
