Cool!

I love the 'Anatomy' books, but my favorite is Dreadnought.

I remember when I was younger I was fascinated with a similar book pertaining to U Boats. Books like these are treasures for those of us that are...ahem..."subsessed."

These are the ones I have right now:
Captain Cook's Endeavour
HMS Beagle: Survey Ship Extraordinary
The 100-Gun Ship Victory
The 24-Gun Frigate Pandora
The 44-Gun Frigate USS Constitution
The Aircraft Carrier Intrepid
The Aircraft Carrier Victorious
The Armed Transport Bounty
The Battlecruiser Hood
The Battleship Dreadnought
The Battleship Warspite
The Battleship Yamato
The Bomb Vessel Granado
The Cruiser Bartolomeo Colleoni
The Cruiser Belfast
The Fairmile 'D' Motor Torpedo Boat
The Flower-Class Corvette Agassiz
The Heavy Cruiser Takao

20 down...just 18 to go. Collecting this series is turning into a real cash drain - some of these books are going for more than $80 used on Amazon, the most expensive one being on the Barque Lawhill, which has one copy available for $148!
