"Unlike those books which are mostly eye candy, this book is a naval history connoisseurs' version of meat and potatoes." ~A Wargamers Needful Things

"When you pick up a Casemate book in this series, you expect to open a door on what the back cover describes as 'unparalleled detail into the weapons, equipment, and machinery of war,' and the author delivers all this in a satisfying, fine-grained read. Most engrossing, however, is his presentation of the thought work behind the design of the Dreadnought, as well as the gradual recognition of the technological evolutions that eventually made this potent machine possible. ~The NYMAS Review

"Fascinating minutiae liberally spice this ripping read...Recommended!" ~Cybermodeler

"...offers a spectacular analysis for those with a more than passing interest of the big ships of WWI." ~Historical Miniatures Gaming Society

"...you are provided a mass of photos, including some of preserved ships along with a fair number of illustrations and tables to help explain the development of these ships and major systems." ~ModelingMadness.Com

" For anyone with a love of the sea, Dreadnoughts and Super-dreadnoughts will be useful and interesting, full of fascinating information. Readers more interested in depicting these ships as artists or model builders will enjoy the book’s historical accuracy and detail. Far better than some examples of this genre, this book is recommended very highly for all readers." ~The Northern Mariner

"Author Chris McNab puts forth a splendid effort to let the reader understand just what life was like aboard a warship in choppy seas sailing to its fate at the Battle of Jutland. Some of the photography is simply superb. The description of ranks, personnel, their respective duties and the role of the dreadnought in World War I is engaging and thorough." ~Indy Squadron Dispatch

"...offers an overview of a time of rapid, tumultuous change in naval technology." ~Nautical Research Journal

“The volume is highly illustrated with many contemporary paintings to compliment the photographs, period plan drawings, and profile illustrations. This is a fine primer for those wishing to fill in the knowledge gaps of naval warship development leading up to WWII.” ~IPMS
