The Battleship Holiday

The Naval Treaties and Capital Ship Design

Robert C Stern
The 1922 Washington Treaty, aimed at de-escalating the post-war arms race, mandated the decommissioning of new ships that were in mid-construction. In this fully illustrated history, the author compares shipbuilding before and after this ‘holiday’, which lasted into the 1930s, showing the extent to which later ships were affected by improvements in fire control and prefabrication processes, and restrictions on armoury.
