Hardcover. Condizione: Good. xxv, [1], 291, [3] pages. Frontis illustrations. Illustrations. Index. Minor edge soiling. Compiled for The Society of Sponsors of the United States Navy. Foreword by Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Arleigh Burke. This is the fourth volume in this series. It contains the records of fewer vessels but among them are several new types of ships. These are of the latest design with highly-developed electronic equipment and atomic propulsion. These new devices are being installed in the ships, listed in this volume, build during the so-called Atomic Age. Many of them are as different from the ships of World War Ii, listed in Volume Three, as those from the sailing ships of the Continental Navy. Accordingly, the Society of Sponsors includes in this volume certain types of ships hitherto considered as auxiliaries and noncombatant. In this nuclear-missile age, mobile forces are becoming more and more important. Nuclear power in our ships of the future will give our forces more mobility. Our forces at sea will be able to stay at sea longer and cruise faster without our former concern for fuel. By spreading our ships out we provide a defense in depth. The advent of new weapons is not a cause for concern about their adverse effects upon the future of the United States Navy--on the contrary, they are a source of ever-increasing strength to our forces afloat. The vast and sweeping technological changes were we are witnessing have resulted in changes and improvement in naval capabilities. Fiftieth Anniversary Edition, presumed First printing.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. xxi, [1][, 618 pages. Frontis illustrations. Illustrations. Index. Compiled for The Society of Sponsors of the United States Navy. This is the third volume in this series and contains a listing of over 4,000 combatant ships and their sponsors. It covers a period of twenty-seven years of unprecedented shipbuilding--the greatest in world history--prior to, during, and since World War II. This volume deals only with combatant ships. Auxiliary ships, which of course are of vital important to the fleets, are not include for the reason that only Sponsors of fighting ships are eligible for memberships in the "The Society of Sponsors of the United States Navy." This covers the types of combatant ships, including: Battleships, Cruisers, Aircraft Carriers, Destroyers, Submarines, Amphibious Vessels, Transports, Escort Vessel, Landing Ship Flotilla, Submarine Chasers, Mine Vessels, Minelayers, Minesweepers, Patrol Vessels, Frigates, Motor Gunboats, Motor Torpedo Boats, Attack Transports. Some combatant ships are omitted, they having no know sponsored having been bought, not built, for the Navy. A few auxiliary ships are included as their Sponsor became members of the Society before a definite ruling was made on this question. Data for biographical sketches of the men for whom ships have been named were compiled from transcripts of their service records supplied from the files of the Bureau of Naval Personnel. In no cases are the biographical sketches intended to be full life stories of achievements or services. Data concerning the first 130 ships launched after 1923 (when Volume II ended) were collected and written up in the narrative style used in previous volumes and were rewritten to conform to the style used in this volume. Reclassification of ships in the Nave occurs from time to time, so it is possible that a Sponsor who christened a destroyer escort may find the ship listed herein as a high speed transport, or that its name had been changed.…
