This is the latest in a series that aims to provide modellers with all they need to know about a famous class of warship and associated model kits.
This volume is devoted to the seven-ship New Orleans class, probably the US Navy's most hard-fought heavy cruisers of the War three were sunk in action but others survived massive damage, and by 1945 three out of four of the navy's most decorated ships were of this class. Although designed within treaty limitations, they proved powerful and well-balanced ships, and their matchless fighting record makes them popular modelling subjects.
With its unparalleled level of visual information paint schemes, models, line drawings and photographs it is simply the best reference for any modelmaker setting out to build one of these famous ships.
