Aircraft-carrying: Ships of the Royal Navy

Within 10 years of man's first flight, the armies and navies of the world had seen the potential of the flying machine, this book looks at the ships of the Royal Navy that have carried and used aircraft since the first aircraft-carrier was built in 1912. From battleships with runways on their turrets, submarines, converted ocean liners, and ferries to the mighty aircraft-carriers of today, this is a complete record of all the aircraft-carrying ships of Britain's Royal Navy.
