## Description

A uniquely detailed study of a Japanese aircraft carrier that took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor, before being sunk at Midway. Superbly illustrated with line drawings, full-colour artwork of the ship through its career, internal reconstructions of deck layouts, and 3D illustrations of every detail of the ship from its rigging to its aircraft to its anchors, this book reconstructs and dissects one of the most prominent carriers of the early Pacific War. Built in the late 1930s, Hiryu took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor and most of the operations of Japan's triumphant first months of the war, before being sunk at Midway. Drawing on Stefan Draminski's new research and making the best use yet of his acclaimed 3D illustration techniques, this is the most comprehensive examination of Hiryu ever published. It includes a complete set of detailed line drawings with fully descriptive keys and full-color 3D artwork, supported by technical details, photographs, and a concise history of the ship's construction and service.

Review: Warto kupić tę książkę. - Bardzo wartościowa książka. Starannie wydana.
Review: Another stunning volume in this series and certainly the definitive one on its chosen subject! - The IJN Hiryu or "Flying Dragon" has always been my favourite IJN Aircraft Carrier of the WW2 "Kido Butai" and this book certainly is the last word on the subject in terms of the sheer wealth of detail it provides. Upon opening it for the first time, one is literally overwhelmed by the volume of material as well as the quality of it! Modelers, historians and general naval enthusiasts will not find this book wanting in any way I should think. I'm super pleased to have added it to my shelf and if you are a fan of the IJN's WW2 Hiryu; you won't be disappointed adding it to yours!
