Question About "Allied Battleships in WW II"

Post by Cliffy B »

Gentlemen I have a question about the following book for those that have or have seen it; "Battleships: Allied Battleships in World War II" By Dulin and Garzke.

Does the book cover the Lion-Class BBs (proposed successors to the KGVs) and/or Vanguard and if so is there a pull out line drawing like the rest of the ships?

I have a chance to get a good copy for a good price and would like to know if that info is in there before I fork over the $$$. Any and all help is appreciated as always.
