Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A riveting exploration of the brilliant, combative, and controversial Father of the Nuclear Navy A superb and even-handed treatment of a complex, brilliant, and driven admiral who inspired both awe and loathing across the Navy he fundamentally reshaped.Admiral James Stavridis, former Supreme Commander, NATO, and author of 2034 Known as the Father of the Nuclear Navy, Admiral Hyman George Rickover (18991986) remains an almost mythical figure in the United States Navy. A brilliant engineer with a ferocious will and combative personality, he oversaw the invention of the worlds first practical nuclear power reactor. As important as the transition from sail to steam, his development of nuclear-propelled submarines and ships transformed naval power and Cold War strategy. They still influence world affairs today. His disdain for naval regulations, indifference to the chain of command, and harsh, insulting language earned him enemies in the navy, but his achievements won him powerful friends in Congress and the White House. A Jew born in a Polish shtetl, Rickover ultimately became the longest-serving U.S. military officer in history. In this exciting new biography, historian Marc Wortman explores the constant conflict Rickover faced and provoked, tracing how he revolutionized the navy and Cold War strategy. A riveting exploration of the brilliant, combative, and controversial Father of the Nuclear Navy Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
