The Second World War battleship HMS Rodney achieved lasting fame for her
role in destroying the pride of Hitler's navy, the mighty Bismarck in a
thrilling duel. The Rodney carrying the largest guns ever mounted in a
British warship finally succeeded in turning her adversary into twisted
metal and so removed a major threat to the Atlantic convoy routes so
vital to the survival of the Nation and the war effort.
This splendid book traces not only this mighty battleship's career in
detail but describes the careers of all the ships carrying the name.
