Hello
I bought this book on Kindle (for Android). It is a complete disappointment.
https://www.amazon.com/Last-British-Bat ... 726&sr=8-1
Not for the text, Burt is a very competent author, but for the resolution of the drawings. The photos are not very large, but most of the drawings are illegible due to the low resolution and quality.
I do not recommend the purchase. Even despite the lower price compared to the paper edition.
Has someone bought it?

I hope you complain to Amazon about this - it's quite unacceptable to have such low quality drawings when the Kindle edition costs *more* than the hardcover!

I have obtained the refund. But no explanation of the problem.Timmy C wrote:I hope you complain to Amazon about this - it's quite unacceptable to have such low quality drawings when the Kindle edition costs *more* than the hardcover!
From the free samples, it seems that the books of the series "Detailed in the Plans of the Original Builders" have the drawings of low quality.

I am very interested in electronic books because I do not have space for paper books. This is a disappointment.
I expected something similar to Warships 2019. I bought directly from Osprey in pdf.

By the way, excellent as usual.
