About this copy
This is the 1974 Pan/Ballantine UK paperback edition, part of The Pan/Ballantine Illustrated History of World War II series. The book was first published in the United States by Ballantine Books Inc in 1973; this copy is the subsequent UK Pan/Ballantine printing dated 1974. No printing number is stated on the copyright page.
A softcover, photo-illustrated weapons book covering the Imperial Japanese Navy's battle fleet during WWII, with photographs sourced from the Imperial War Museum, US Navy, US National Archives, and other archives.
Condition
- Book
- Good – a well-read paperback copy showing corner wear, light rubbing and scuffing to the covers, and a vertical crease line running near the spine on both front and back covers. Text block edges are lightly toned with age. Binding remains sound.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
