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.
