The paperback updates the history of ships named London through the future Type 26 HMS London and includes useful drawings and photographs. It combines operational, social, and design history within a single ship biography. The recommendation comes with a disclosed relationship: author Ian Valentine is a friend and past employer. The updated content and illustrations still make the softback more useful than the older hardback and Kindle editions.
