This book sets out to delineate the general framework - political, economical, strategic, tactical and technological - in which the design of the battleship evolved. The book also focuses on aspects of the design process which are overlooked by other studies, in particular the administrative structure of the Admiralty and how it contributed to design policy. It seeks to present the battleships of the era on their own terms, rather than comparing them with later ships.
