For a 48 page book published in 2007, it was a decent little summary of the fast attack nuclear sub history and details. I finished it during a single lunch hour including this review. I guess that I would have like to have seen more tables of data and cutaway artwork, but overall it was a good book. I am curious what the feedback from sub professionals would be about this book. From a relative layman submarine book collector, it was a pleasure to speed through. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The adoption of nuclear power revolutionized submarine design and means that vessels can stay underwater for months, trailing the enemy or training weapons on land targets from secret positions, "always there, never seen." Jim Christley, a former submariner, explores here the influence of Admiral Hyman Rickover in cautiously introducing these stealthy machines of war, and frankly discusses the power and perils of using nuclear reactors at sea. Using unique and detailed artwork, he outlines the many evolving aspects of design within the submarine classes, from the very first nuclear submarine, USS Nautilus, to the classes under construction even now.
