"In summary, this book provides a wide range of potential readers with information about some important RN fleet units that played a significant part in World War two in addition to giving insight into what is both available and possible for those who might wish to model them. While none of them served with the RAN, several served alongside RAN units in the Mediterranean and British Pacific Fleets and are mentioned in G Hermon Gill’s History of the RAN. I am very happy to recommend this book highly."
