The Aircraft Carrier Victorious
Anatomy of the Ship

Author: Ross Watton

By: Shane Jenkins


Covering her 27 year career thoroughly, this book is a must read for fans of HMS Victorious. It follows the standard formula established by Conway for this series with history, specifications, photos and most importantly drawings.

The strenghth of this book lies in the plans and drawings which show virtually every aspect of HMS Victorious during her career. They consist of line drawings, armament, radar, aircarft etc. The plans and drawings will keep the modeller busy with superdetailing their models.

If I had to make one criticism, it would be that the inclusion of more photos would be desirable to complement the excellent plans and drawings

If you ever want to do a model of HMS Victorious or are interested in her, this book is a must for you. Ross Watton has done an excellent job and I recommend this book highly.
