Today we are talking warships: from the revolutionary Tudor ships to modern aircraft carriers, and all the innovations along the way. 

Our guest is History Hit’s own Dan Snow. 

Dan, a self-confessed Martime history nerd, gives Dallas a whistle stop tour of nearly 200 years of history — from the rise of wooden warships, to how these feats of engineering were built and how they transformed the world, forever.
