Imaginative Display of Quantitative Data: the Diminishing French Navy

JF Ptak Science Books Quick Post [Part of the series on the Quantitative Display of Information.]

The size of the French Navy was displayed in carnivorous detail in this 1905 graphical display of data, found in the Illustrated London News. To have your navy devoured by the Germans, Japanese, British and American navies, seen in relentless relief. I'm sure that the illustration put across its message rather well.
