The book is devoted entirely to the question of painting US battleships from the Second World War - from the moment the United States joined the Second World War with the Japanese attack on the naval base in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii until the day of Japanese capitulation aboard the USS Missouri battleship on September 2, 1945. The reader will find in it colour plates presenting all the American battleships used in this period, a large number of historical photos illustrating the variety of camouflage used and information on guidelines, painting schemes and paints used on all 27 American battleships that took part in World War II. 420 illustrations
