But for me, there’s one battleship whose story stands above the others. A battleship that served for more than 30 years, and survived some of the deadliest theatres of two world wars to become Britain’s most highly decorated warship. This is the story of the fearsome HMS Warspite. Main Sources: Iain Ballantyne, Warspite: From Jutland Hero to Cold War Warrior Robert K. Massie, Dreadnought Robert K. Massie, Castles of Steel R.A.
