Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if there are any books containing pictures and/or plans of HMS Courageous and Glorious in there light cruisers incarnation. I have seen a book called british cruisers in world war 1 by R.A. Burt but don't know what's inside. Is it a good buy?

Thanks!


Try these two books, they deal with Courageous and Glorious as Battle Cruisers very well. Drawings and pictures included.

"Battlecruisers" By John Roberts , ShipShape Series, Chatham Publishing, London/ or US Naval Institute Press here in North America.

"British Battleships of World War I" by RA Burt , Arms and Armor Press in the UK / or US Naval Insitiute Press here in North America.

Excellent books and you will find all you are looking for in them :wave_1:

Also try the Journal "Warship 1990 Edition" an article entitled "The Weird Sisters" photos and an operational history of these two Battle Cruisers in WWI.
