REVIEWER: Greg Ewald
NOTES: For ages 10 and up. Ringbound with hard cover.

War at sea has long been a fascinating subject, and this book/model crosses the lines with a very easy to read, extremely informative historical section, as well as pages of very well printed out card models that you can make.

The entire development of warships is detailed in the book, with an interesting timeline printed across the top so you can follow the changes that were made as humans became better and better at thinking of ways to dominate the seas.

This version includes card models of the Bismark, HMS Victory, USS Alabama, a Roman Trireme (shown below), and the USS Nimitz.

The stock is of very nice thick paper, in a loose ring binder.

The fascination of mankind with the water is astounding, and rarely do you come across a user-friendly book packed with this much information and three dimensional card models.

If you haven’t given card models a try yet, do yourself a big favour and pick this one up.
