Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922 effectively banned the building of battleships, competition between the major navies concentrated on the next most powerful category, heavy cruisers limited to 10,000 tons displacement and 8-inch guns. Italy followed this trend, the first design for what became Trento and Trieste being ordered in 1924. These were the fastest of the first generation Treaty' cruisers but were very lightly armoured, and the succeeding Zara class of four ships were slower but better protected. However, before the final ship of this class (Pola) had been completed, there was a return to the earlier fast, lightly protected concept with the Bolzano, although this ship also incorporated aspects of the Zara design. The political background, design history and technical features of these classes are covered in great depth in this volume. They were important ships, subject to incremental improvement so no two were identical, and modelmakers in particular will appreciate the space devoted to the variations in appearance, using both description and illustration. As major units of the Italian battlefleet, they were more active than most during the war and their careers are fully detailed, including analyses of damage suffered. Tragically, they were all sunk and the full circumstances of each loss is explored. As befits a technical history, the book is thoroughly illustrated with ship and armament plans, detail drawings and colour camouflage schemes, as well as an outstanding collection of photographs. Translated from the same series that produced the highly successful Italian Battleships, this volume is a fitting companion. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Originally comprising five ships in two related classes, Conte di Cavour and Duilio classes entered service at the beginning of the Great War. As designed, they were powerful examples of the second generation of dreadnoughts, with a combination of twin and triple turrets producing a unique main armament of thirteen 12-inch guns. This book covers all the technical details of the ships, both as built and as rebuilt, but also provides an extended history of their active service, including battle plans and track charts.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. With the publication of their previous book on the battleships of the _Littorio_ class, the authors set new standards for the detailed coverage and sophisticated analysis of Italian warship design. Inspired by its success, both critically and commercially, the authors were inspired to follow up with a similar study of the earlier Italian battleships that were built in the First World War but survived to fight in the Second. Given the level of new research required, this has taken a decade to achieve but the result is a similarly comprehensive coverage.Originally comprising five ships in two related classes, they entered service at the beginning of the Great War. As designed, they were powerful examples of the second generation of dreadnoughts, with a combination of twin and triple turrets producing a unique main armament of thirteen 12-inch guns. One ship, _Leonardo da Vinci_, was sunk by an internal explosion at Taranto in 1916, and although the hull was raised post-war, the plan to rebuild the ship was abandoned as it was not deemed cost-effective.However, the remaining four ships were to undergo one of the most radical reconstructions of any battleship class during the 1930s, emerging with an entirely new profile, more powerful machinery and all the characteristics of a modern fast battleship. In this form they became an important element in the Italian fleet that opposed the British after 1940\. This book covers all the technical details of the ships, both as built and as rebuilt, but also provides an extended history of their active service, including battle plans and track charts.Thoroughly illustrated with photographs, ship and armament plans, detail drawings and colour camouflage schemes, the book is a fitting companion to _The Littorio Class_.…

Brossura. Zustand: nuovo. Luglio editore, 2021. Brossura. NUOVO. Pagine: 212. Numero illustrazioni: 255 - Il lavoro nasce da attività di ricerca e di pubblicazioni dell autore non immediatamente indirizzate a Trieste, alla Regione Giulia e al loro rapporto con il mare, bensì alla politica navale italiana fra le due guerre mondiali e alla guerra marittima in Mediterraneo nell ultimo conflitto mondiale per il coinvolgimento avuto dall industria cantieristica nazionale. In entrambe era ricorrente l imbattersi nella fitta trama di rapporti economici, finanziari e produttivi, spesso accompagnati da comparazioni, apprezzamenti sulle potenzialità e sull efficienza dell industria cantieristica triestina, al pari della restante cantieristica italiana. Contestualmente, per gli stessi decenni era altrettanto agevole cogliere in seno alla Marina la forte carica simbolica assunta dalla città irredenta, dapprima in relazione al coronamento dell unità nazionale, ma in seguito anche nella prospettiva di un suo decisivo apporto alle ambizioni di affermazione ed espansione dell Italia sul mare, che la Marina non nascostamente coltivavano, specie a partire dalla metà degli Anni trenta. Per converso, ancor più vivo fu l interesse dell industria navale e della città verso le commesse militari, nazionali ed estere, reputate indispensabili per la sua stessa sopravvivenza in un epoca segnata dalla crisi del dopoguerra, dalla depressione economica degli Anni trenta e dalla strutturale sovracapacità produttiva, massimamente dovuta all acquisizione dell industria navale giuliana dal 1918. Con l ausilio di una vasta e, in parte inedita, documentazione fotografica ( incentrata sulle visite navali a Trieste e sulle costruzioni e sui lavori per la Regia Marina dei cantieri San Marco e San Rocco), che ne costituisce il filo conduttore, l autore, con il concorso di Mario Cicogna, ripercorre i tratti essenziali anno per anno costante è, infatti, il richiamo agli annuali programmi navali su cui si fondavano le costruzioni navali italiane di questi rapporti, spesso difficoltosi, ma che finirono con il rivelare nei giudizi della Regia Marina, prima e durante il conflitto, il riconoscimento di un primato di efficienza e capacità dei cantieri triestini sui restanti cantieri italiani.…
