""Modern Ships of War"" is a historical book written by Edward James Reed in 1888. The book is a comprehensive study of the latest naval technology and engineering of that time. The author, who was a naval architect and politician, provides a detailed analysis of the design and construction of warships, including steam engines, armor, weapons, and navigation systems.The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a different aspect of naval technology. The first chapter provides an overview of the history of naval warfare, while the subsequent chapters discuss the latest developments in ship design and construction, including the introduction of ironclads and torpedoes.Reed also examines the naval strategies and tactics of major naval powers such as Britain, France, and the United States. He discusses the strengths and weaknesses of their fleets and provides insights into the future of naval warfare.The book is richly illustrated with diagrams and drawings, providing a visual representation of the various ships and technologies discussed in the text. The illustrations also include detailed cross-sections of ships, showing the internal structure and machinery.Overall, ""Modern Ships of War"" is an informative and authoritative text on naval technology and engineering of the late 19th century.
