Description: New book, 72 pages. The Classic Warships's series Warship Pictorial is out with the latest volume on the Italian Battleship RM (Regia Marina) Roma. As with previous volumes, this book follows the standard format- a textual general history, followed by well-captioned photos in loose chronological order; the photos span from Roma's launch to her death from German guided glide bombs- the "Fritz X", or FX-1400. The last pages are the general characteristics of Roma, and a page of references and acknowledgements. Like all of Classic Warship's offerings, Steve Wiper knows what modelers like to see, reference-wise, and selects images to meet those needs.
