The Battleships
Before the nuclear bomb, no weapon on Earth had evoked so much fear, veneration and passion as the battleship. In destructive power it had no equal. 'The Battleships', in four epic programmes, unveils the dramatic saga of power, international politics, and one-upmanship that led to the titanic wars of the twentieth century. It is a story involving rulers, warlords and admirals who all became intoxicated by the grandeur, majesty and sheer power of these floating fortresses.
