Three Ark Royals 1938 - 1999 by Neil McCart. - Cranston Military Prints

Three Ark Royals 1938 - 1999 by Neil McCart.


Three Ark Royals 1938 - 1999 by Neil McCart.

This is the first, and only, book to tell the full stories of the last three Ark Royals in detail; the wartime Ark Royal which saw so much action in the first two years of the Second World War; the Ark Royal of the 1950s, 60s and 70s which, during the years of intense antagonism between the superpowers, projected British maritime air power all over the world; and the present Ark Royal which will take the Fleet Air Arm into the 21st century. The in - depth research has allowed the author to cover the careers of all three carriers, through each year of their operational service with the Royal Navy. There are 165 top quality photographs, including 15 in colour, covering their careers, from the launching of the third Ark Royal in 1937, right through to the present Ark Royals final deployment in the last decade of the 20th century.
