About this product

Product Information

Now Hear This , first published in 1947, is an account of the combat actions of representative ships of the U.S. Navy during World War II in all theaters of the War. Included are accounts of historic battleships such as the Missouri and Iowa , aircraft carriers such as the Hornet and Saratoga , cruisers, destroyers, and submarines, as well as the exploits of lesser known, but vital to the war effort, merchant marine ships, transport ships, landing craft, tender ships, store ships, PT boats, hospital ships, and even 'lowly' tugs. The accounts, prepared from official U.S. Navy records and from interviews with crew members, are succinct, yet authoritative, making Now Hear This an invaluable reference to the military scholar or anyone interested in learning more about the U.S. naval fleet, and the service, drama, and hardships the ships and their crews faced as they battled enemy ships, submarines, aircraft, mines, sharks, violent weather, and more. Included is an Appendix listing ships receiving various commendations, a list of naval vessels lost during the war, and a chronology of important Second World War naval events. Also included are 16 pages of photographs.
