“Love’s History of the U.S. Navy, 1775-1941, is the best recent example of military history—literate, thorough, and provocative. He judges and convinces with his command of the facts and writes with the understanding of the navy specialists and the politicians they served. It will be the world standard text on the U.S. Navy.” –John Lehman, Secretary of the Navy, 1981-86
Description

Presented in two volumes, Robert Love shows how the interplay of international affairs, foreign policy, partisan politics, changing technology, and Navy views has shaped the American fleet and continues to define its missions and operations.
