I'm eagerly awaiting more, especially on the Bismarck. Amazon is pretty proud of that one and I want to see if it is worth the price.

Hope you hold onto your receipt. I don't actually own the Bismarck book, but I checked it out through inter-library loan one time. The General Arrangement plans are nice, but there's almost nothing about machinery and hull structure, no perspective views, and the drawings are pretty lifeless (all hairline thicknesses). I don't expect art from these books, but I need some visual interest to draw me in. I'm a little tired right now, but I'll get around to reviewing The 74-Gun Ship Bellona tomorrow.
