One Hundred Years of Sea Power The U.S. Navy, 1890-1990

"A fine book: meticulous, judicious, incisive. It is a book to which the conventional exaggerations"must" reading, relevant, if you're only going to read one book on the subject, etc.actually may be said to apply. . . . It is a study of the interactions of technology, bureaucracy, politics and culture, of how an institution adapts, or fails to adapt, to changing conditions. As such, the book belongs on a lot of desks at the Pentagon."Washington Times "Baer takes what could have been a dry topicthe political history of the modern U.S. Navyand turns it into interesting reading."Library JournalBaer, George W. is the author of 'One Hundred Years of Sea Power The U.S. Navy, 1890-1990' with ISBN 9780804722735 and ISBN 0804722730.
