Any good books written from the perspective of a battleship?

Battleships can't write books, idiot.

"Battleship at War" is a pretty good book I think. It follows the USS Washington which was one of the most decorated battleships the USN had that served pretty much from beginning to the end of the war.
Pursuit: The Chase and Sinking of the Battleship Bismarck
kinda mandatory reading

not a battleship, but read "Japanese Destroyer Captain" by tameichi hara. Interesting about naval tactics in the age of ww2.

"I, Battleship" from William Connor will do the trick for you
the kamikaze diaries
a lot of excerpts were written the nights before, so it wasn't exactly from battleship perspective but they got there soon enough
>>/cgl is that way

He said PERSPECTIVE, not AUTHORED, idiot.
There aren't a whole lot of intergalactic mercenaries or elven swordsmen out there either, but I bet you don't bat an eye when there are books written from their perspective.

I recommend Fair Winds and Following Me: A Tale of Love, Loss, and Hull Damage, by I. Roncladd. It's not quite as good as T. Cross's Dread Not the Dreadnaught, but it's more accessible to the first-ship perspective genre.
