by Kit Bonner, Carolyn Bonner
Category: Technology & Engineering

Subtitled: An Illustrated History. Mighty ships of the US and Russian navies squared off continuously throughout the Cold War: monitoring each others' maneuvers, intercepting radio transmissions, targeting one another with weapons systems, and forcing each other off course. Cold War at Sea chronicles these key combatants: the aircraft carriers, battleships, cruisers, destroyers, frigates, subs, amphibious forces, and auxiliaries from just after WWII, detailing naval growth and development through the most intense moments of superpower brinkmanship.
