En savoir plus sur le livre

The Fairfield Shipbuilding & Engineering Co Ltd in Govan, Glasgow, is renowned for its innovative contributions to maritime engineering, particularly the compound steam engine and record-breaking Atlantic liners. Despite its significant role in shipbuilding and wartime contracts, the yard faced decline in the late 20th century, leading to insolvency in 1965. After years of struggle and state ownership, BAE Systems acquired the yard in 2000, revitalizing it as a major warship builder involved in modern naval projects, promising a bright future for this historic shipyard.
