This classic study is considered essential reading for its analysis
of fast aircraft carrier development in WWII. It provides a
fascinating record not only of the U.S. Navy's metamorphosis from a
battleship-oriented to a carrier-centered fleet, but also of the
heated debates that took place over the changing naval strategy.
With an insider's grasp of the famous individuals involved,
award-winning naval historian Clark G. Reynolds takes readers from
the war rooms of Washington to the flight decks of the Pacific. He
vividly describes the battles over the concept of fast carriers
between the air admirals and battleship admirals and offers
little-known details gleaned from personal interviews and private
diaries.
