Requests:  0 Summary:  In this engaging narrative, brought to life by marine artist Ian Marshall's beautiful full-color paintings, historian Paul Kennedy grapples with the rise and fall of the Great Powers during World War II. Tracking the movements of the six major navies of the Second World War--the allied navies of Britain, France, and the United States and the Axis navies of Germany, Italy, and Japan--Kennedy tells a story of naval battles, maritime campaigns, convoys, amphibious landings, and strikes from the sea. From the elimination of the Italian, German, and Japanese fleets and almost all of the French fleet, to the end of the era of the big-gunned surface vessel, the advent of the atomic bomb, and the rise of an American economic and military power larger than anything the world had ever seen, Kennedy shows how the strategic landscape for naval affairs was completely altered between 1936 and 1946.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.545 Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 940.545 Ke Checked out 05/17/2024 Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 940.545 Ke Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
