The Destroyer USS Kidd

Superbly illustrated with artwork of the ship through its career, reconstructions of deck layouts, and 3D illustrations of every detail from its rigging to its boats to its anchors, this book reconstructs and dissects the Fletcher-class destroyer USS Kidd, the most original survivor of the US Navy's most famous class of World War II destroyers.

Kidd fought throughout the Pacific War, in the Marshall Islands, Marianas, and Philippines campaigns.

In early 1945, Kidd joined Task Force 58 for the invasion of Okinawa, and postwar served in the Korean War.

Since 1982 USS Kidd has been a museum ship at Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Drawing on Stefan Draminski's research and making the best use yet of his acclaimed 3D illustration techniques, this is the most comprehensive examination of USS Kidd ever published.
