"Jane's Fighting Ships" has been published annually since 1897. To mark the centenary of this title, this edition reviews the full range of technological developments charted in the pages of this publication, from the beginning of the 20th century, when Britain was the world's greatest naval power, through the World Wars and into the long era of American maritime supremacy. It also reveals the latest ideas in warship construction: radical designs which may make many of today's warships as obsolete as the Victorian Royal Navy's battleships originally described by "Fighting Ships'" founder, Fred T. Jane.
