USS Arizona (BB-39): From Keel Laying to Pearl Harbor Memorial (Legends of Warfare: Naval) Hardcover
Coming in late February 2025!
A battleship of the Pennsylvania class, USS Arizona is most famous for her disastrous loss, along with over 1,000 of her men, during the surprise attack at Pearl Harbor.
Armed with 12 14-inch guns, and numerous smaller weapons, Arizona was one of the most powerful warships in the world when commissioned in 1917.
This volume illustrates the modifications and improvements made to the ship during her service, and her subsequent loss and partial salvage. Today the battleship remains on the bottom of Pearl Harbor, spanned by a memorial to the sacrifice of her men.
Through carefully researched archival documents and photographs, author David Doyle has constructed a pictorial history of this warship and the men who crewed her, featuring more than 300 photograph.
This book has been reviewed by Model Warships, and a review can be seen here.
This book is a revision and expansion of my previous USS Arizona Squadron at Sea title.
