Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Nevada class battleships were the United States Navy's first battleship design equipped with triple gun turrets (the Colorado class would be the last to carry twin turrets, armed with dual-mounted 16" guns), as well as introducing the so-called "all or nothing" armor scheme, in which protection of vital areas was optimized against heavy caliber guns, leaving other parts of the ship essentially unprotected. The Nevada class also represented the advance to all fuel oil propulsion. Taken together, the Nevada class battleship represented a considerable evolution in battleship design up to this point in time.
