Synopsis
The second volume for this established series detailing all the designs for Motor Torpedo Boats, Motor Gun Boats and Motor Launches that served the Allied Forces in the period 1939-45 is to examine the remaining designs and their weapons. Volume I examined in depth the British Fairmile, with Admiralty HDML designs and US Submarine Chasers, while Volume III examines in depth the remaining types designed and built on both sides of the Atlantic.
Volume II examines sixteen Vesper MTB designs, and the US 70ft, 77ft and 80ft ECLO designs. US-built Vesper designs supplied under lease-lend are also covered while weapons systems and machinery are dealt with in detail. Design, construction, equipment and subsequent development are all covered, and builders, construction lists, fates and technical data are given for each type. Some 700 finely detailed drawings have been included. John Lambert is the author of a number of books for Conway Maritime Press including Allied Coastal Forces, volume 1 and the forthcoming volume 3, and The Submarine Alliance in the ‘Anatomy of the Ship’ series.
Al Ross is a world famous draughts man and has contributed to Conway’s History of the Ship and The Escort Carrier Gambier Bay in the ‘Anatomy’ series.
