Review title: More is not better
Product review: Like Conway's Ships of the World (different war eras), Jane's Fighting Ships tries to cover much too much ground with obsolete data. Jane's was formerly published by the English Fred T. Jane on an annual basis and as an annual was only as accurate as its contributing editors from each nation could be, i. e. they depended on official data released by the individual countries which tried to cover up as much as possible. Even in 1947, little was published on YAMATO and accurate information on the Axis navies was still rare. The author fails in his attempt to produce a compendium of WWII naval strength. Subsequent naval writing with more current information has rendered his book worse than useless.
