British Battleships 1939-45 (2): Nelson and King George V classes (New Vanguard) from Osprey Publishing Price: $10.77 Customer Review: Excellent study of the design and careers of these eight ships. Focus is on the evolution of the designs and operational careers with excellent illustrations.

4.		Blackbeard: America's Most Notorious Pirate from Wiley Price: $4.44 Customer Review: I found the book quite interesting since some of my ancestors immigrated to the Pamlico River area of North Carolina in the 1700's where Black Beard spent his final days. I was a bit disappointed that the book seemed to be more of a general history of the pirate situation in the 1700's and not an... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

5.		THE BATTLE OF NORTH CAPE: The Death Ride of the Scharnhorst, 1943 (Campaign Chronicles) from Pen and Sword Price: $23.16 Customer Review: The battle of North Cape, like so many naval battles, was fought in bad weather over a large area and with too many pieces on the chess board. Mr. Konstam does a fine job of bringing clarity to very confused situation. The German battlecruiser Scharnhorst (nine 11" guns) sailed from... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

Scapa Flow: The defences of Britain's great fleet anchorage 1914-45 (Fortress) from Osprey Publishing Price: $11.39 Customer Review: Having grown up and lived in the Orkney Islands, military historian Angus Konstam was the perfect choice to write Osprey's Fortress No. 85, Scapa Flow.

9.		The Pirate Ship 1660-1730 (New Vanguard) from Osprey Publishing Price: $6.85 Customer Review: The Pirate Ship by Angus Konstam is helpful in terms of providing a brief overview of pirate ships and some very detailed illustrations, but at 48 pages (including the index) it's little more than a pamphlet on the subject and should not be viewed as anything close to a comprehensive reference. The... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.		Sovereigns of the Sea: The Quest to Build the Perfect Renaissance Battleship from Wiley Price: $5.56 Customer Review: Angus Konstam's book, Sovereigns of the Sea proves to be a great book on the evolution of warship building in northern Europe. Much of the book centered around the arms race between England, Netherlands and Spain during the 16th century with France thrown in here and there. It is interesting to note... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
