This is the second book of four that covers all of the ship models in my collection. 36 of my Australian ship models are covered in this second volume including the battlecruiser HMAS Australia, the famous cruisers HMAS Perth (I) and HMAS Sydney (II). It shows a large photograph of each ship model as well as detailed views of each one.

The third volume covers 35 ship models including HMS Hood, the amazing Great Eastern, the 7 turreted battleship that was the main cause of Turkey joining Germany in WWI HMS Agincourt as well as the model of the oldest ship in my collection Cheop’s Royal Barge. As far as Australian ships go there is the huge Landing Helicopter Dock HMAS Canberra as well as HMAS Armidale. This volume compliments the first two volumes and together with Volumes 1 and 2 covers well over 130 of the ships in my collection

This is the first book that details over 80 of my ship models including the RMS Queen Mary, and the Allied cruisers that were lost during the battles of the Java Sea and Sunda Straits. All of my models are to the same scale, that is 1/192 which is the scale used by the British Admiralty in many of their plans.
