The Granado was one of 12 bomb vessels built to supplement the British fleet at the outbreak of the War Of Jenkins' Ear in 1739. This volume is of especial use to both the scratch-build modeller and the reader of C.S.Forester who wants to know more about bomb vessels. The 'Granado' was one of twelve bomb vessels built to supplement the British fleet at the outbreak of the War Of Jenkins' Ear in 1739. Bomb vessels were a specialization of the warship into a ‘floating siege engine’, carrying huge shell-firing mortars for the purpose of bombarding stationary targets. This volume is of special use to both the scratch-build modeller and the reader of C.S.Forester who wants to know more about bomb vessels. It also provides insights about Jack Aubrey's first command, since the Sophie was also a 14 gun brig-sloop with a quarterdeck and stern windows. The aim of this book is to provide the finest documentation of this important and unusual vessel type ever produced, through a complete set of superbly executed line drawings offering enthusiasts a novel insight into ship design and construction. It includes a service and design history and a pictorial section emphasising close-up and on-board photographs. Descrizione completa della nave, e sviluppo dei vascelli “Bombarda”. Sezione fotografica che evidenzia gli interni e gli esterni attraverso vari modelli in scala delle navi bombarda. Una guida allo schema di colorazione dello scafo sulla copertina. Più di 300 prospettive e disegni in vista 3 D, con chiare descrizioni di ogni dettaglio della nave, costruzione dello scafo, attrezzature, decorazioni, alberi e pennoni, manovre e armamento. Un piano in grande scala 1:96 sul rovescio di copertina.
