About This Item
This is a first edition (UK/original) of Epic Sea Battles, published in 1975. It was written by the British naval historian William J. Koenig and contains hundreds of photographs, drawings and maps.
In discusses 12 battles, beginning with the Battle of the Nile in 1798 and finishing with the Battle of Leyte Gulf in 1944 (see Contents photo).
It is a big book--9 1/2" x 12 3/4" and 256 pages.It has no dust jacket.
There is a very small inscription (daughter to father) on the front endpaper.I don't think it has been read.
Aside from a few tiny specks on the cover, it is in perfect condition.
