With full details, this booklet presents the armoured cruiser "Asama" of the Imperial Japanese Fleet. The ship was commissioned in March 1899 and took part in operations of the Russo-Japanese War 1904/5. The first 11 or so pages contain information on the history of the "Asama's" development, armament, construction and technology. This is followed by the extensive picture section, which uses three-dimensional graphics to depict practically every part of the ship on approx. 50 colour pages. No detail is forgotten and the reader gets an excellent impression of the appearance of this ship. A real treasure trove for model builders and ship enthusiasts.
