RM Roma

Wiper. This heavily illustrated book examines Italy's fourth Vittorio Veneto-class battleship, the RM Roma, which, in addition to receiving extra (thirty-two total) 20 mm/65 caliber Breda anti-aircraft guns, included a higher freeboard and a finer end at the waterline compared to its sister ships. You'll see construction, on-deck, and combat photos, and also learn of the ship's surprising fate. 72 pages, 90+ B&W and color photographs and illustrations (detail drawings and profile views), 11"x 8¼", softcover.
