Query: Great topic; most disappointing book

This is a wonderful topic. The Japanese built powerful warships - but with a different and fascinating perspective and appearance than the Western Powers. Unfortunately this book is a pamphlet: 75 or so pages, many pictures (good) but the accompanying description is merely a few paragraphs per ship - only a little more than a reader of the Pacific theatre would already know. Size of the book is also a detriment - thin; larger (height/ width) than a usual hardbound, much smaller than an illustrated book. Disappointingly, every time I see this book, the word "cheap" comes to mind. Sorry, go back and do a more comprehensive work on this and present it in a manner to be proud of.
