Default The Bismarck

You know, I'd say the "Anatomy of the Ship" book on the Bismarck is one of the weakest in the series. The draftsmanship is cold and sterile (mostly hairline thickness lines), there's very little information on hull structure and machinery, the scaling of the plans is all over the place, there are no perspective drawings, few photographs, and only a couple of fittings are depicted.

I know you were looking for Bismarck books, but if the "Anatomy" series interests you, I'd recommend going for anything by the three Johns (John Roberts, John McKay, and John Lambert) instead.
