Resurrection Salvaging the Battle Fleet at Pearl Harbor【電子書籍】[ Daniel Madsen ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Aimed at the general reader with an interest in World War II and the U.S. Navy, this book looks at the massive salvage effort that followed the attack on Pearl Harbor, beginning with the damage control efforts aboard the sinking and damaged ships in the harbor on 7 December 1941 and ending in March 1944 when salvage efforts on the USS ＜em＞Utah＜/em＞ were finally abandoned.

The Fur-Trade Fleet Shipwrecks of the Hudson’s Bay Company【電子書籍】[ Anthony Dalton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In mid-July 1925, the SS ＜em＞Bayeskimo＜/em＞ ran into heavy drift ice at the entrance to Hudson Strait. The ice carried her north, squeezing the steamer and testing the strength of her rivets. Helpless until the tide changed and the ice moved, the officers and crew could only watch and listen to the ship’s tormented groans. Slowly at first, trickles of freezing water seeped through the steel plates on her bow. The trickles became a flood, and ＜em＞Bayeskimo＜/em＞ began to sink.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Bayeskimo＜/em＞ was one of hundreds of ships in the Hudson’s Bay Company’s fur-trade fleet. For much of the company’s history, they roamed Hudson Bay, the subarctic and beyond the Arctic Circle, servicing far-flung posts. Some even battled their way around the tip of South America to open up trade on the west coast of North America. During these arduous voyages, many of them came to grief under conditions that would test the mettle of any ship. Here are some of their dramatic stories.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	571円
Wings for the Fleet A Narrative of Naval Aviation's Early Development, 1910-1916【電子書籍】[ George van Deurs ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The men who ventured into the air in the Navy’s first frail aircraft were not only daringーthey had vision, persistence, and a nearly unlimited determination to convince the skeptics that their frail kite-like structures could someday possess military value. This is the story of their trials, tragedies, and triumphs. They patched cooling systems with chewing gum, they lived by “crash, repair, and fly again,” but they succeeded in developing this new service into an effective arm of the fleet. ＜em＞Wings for the Fleet＜/em＞, first published in 1966, covers the fascinating details of those pioneering days from 1910 to the entry of the United States into World War I. All of the heroic “early birds” are here with full accounts of their exploits. Admiral van Deurs, himself a naval aviator since the early 1920s, has rendered a significant service by his careful preparation of this well-balanced, thoroughly illustrated historical account, which comes complete with appendixes listing early naval aviators and the planes they flew. Over one hundred photographs were selected from official and private sources to illustrate this book.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	5,930円
The One Ship Fleet USS BoiseーWWII Naval Legend, 1938?45【電子書籍】[ Phillip T. Parkerson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞"If the doings of the U.S. Navy in World War II are of any interest to you, the book is worth a read." ー PowerShips＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Brooklyn-class light cruiser USS Boise (CL-47) was one of the most famous US combat ships of World War II, already internationally renowned following her participation in the naval battles in the Solomons in 1942. After repairs and modifications, in 1943 the Boise was sent to the Mediterranean theater, there to participate in the invasions of Sicily, Taranto, and Salerno, and enhancing her fame by destroying enemy tanks during armored counterattacks in both Sicily and Salerno. From the Mediterranean, Boise was sent to the Southwest Pacific theater to join the US 7th Fleet for the campaign in New Guinea in 1943?44 and then the invasion of the Philippines. She fought in the battle of Leyte Gulf, notably in the night engagement in the Surigao Strait, where battleships faced off against each other for the last time in maritime history. Boise was credited with helping to sink a Japanese battleship. She also fought off the suicide planes known as kamikazes at Leyte and later at Lingayen Gulf during the invasion of Luzon. MacArthur used her as his flagship for the Luzon attack, thereby adding to her already considerable fame, then after helping retake Corregidor and other islands in the Philippines, Boise carried the general on a triumphant tour of the islands. This tour was interrupted for the invasion of Borneo, but completed when the beach was secured. After MacArthur left the ship in June 1945, she returned to the US for overhaul which was just complete as the war ended, by which time she had been awarded 11 battle stars, more than any other light cruiser in her class. This full account of USS Boise’s war not only gives us an insight into how one ship navigated a global conflict, but also an insight into the experiences of the men who served on her, and a new perspective on the naval campaigns of the war.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,936円

This is the story of one of World War II's most devastating raids, recounting how a handful of obsolete Fairey Swordfish biplanes swooped in and destroyed an Italian battleship and badly damaged two more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With expert analysis, detailed colour illustrations and a gripping narrative, this book explains the origins of the attack, its planning and execution, and what happened in the aftermath.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	2,695円

Fleet Air Arm Boys A Lifetime of Reminiscences from the Flight Deck【電子書籍】[ Steve Bond ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Steve Bond is back with the final volume in this popular series. Unlike his previous three tomes, with their focus on aircraft and rotorcraft, this book is uniquely dedicated to the personnel of the Fleet Air Arm (FAA) themselves. Each chapter will concentrate on the memories of contributors who served in a range of roles, including those below the flight deck. Accounts will focus on the everyday life upon an aircraft carrier as well as the extraordinary challenges faced during operations. There is a fascinating chapter covering exchange services with the RAF and other navies including the French and US; and also insight into the Indian navy’s experience with the Sea Hawk and Sea Harrier. Within the previous volumes, we met some true characters and there is a chapter devoted to people’s memories of them. The closing section entitled ‘Thoughts’ sees contributors reflect on their FAA career with many deeply moving responses and discourses on the future of the service. The book is heavily illustrated throughout in color and black and white with personal photographs from the contributors, artwork and tongue-in-cheek cartoons for which the FAA is famous. Volume Four is the perfect conclusion to the ongoing post-war story of a truly astounding branch of the armed forces.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,936円

Beans, Bullets, and Black Oil - The Story of Fleet Logistics Afloat in the Pacific During World War II【電子書籍】[ Rear Adm. Worrall Reed Carter ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Includes over 150 photos.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Victory is won or lost in battle, but all military history shows that adequate logistic support is essential to the winning of battles.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In World War II, logistic support of the fleet in the Pacific became a problem of such magnitude and diversity, as well as vital necessity, that all operations against Japan hinged upon it. The advance against the enemy moved our fleet progressively farther and farther away from the west coast of the United States, from Pearl Harbor, and from other sources of supply, to support our fleet we constructed temporary bases for various uses, and we formed floating mobile service squadrons and other logistic support groups. These floating organizations remained near the fighting fleet, supplying food, ammunition, and other necessities while rendering repair services close to the combat areas, this support enabled the fleet to keep unrelenting pressure upon the enemy by obviating the return of the fleet to home bases.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Because of the knowledge gained during his South Pacific service and particularly from his experience as Commander of Service Squadron Ten, the largest of the mobile squadrons, Rear Admiral W.R. Carter was chosen to write this history of logistics afloat in the Pacific.

King's Navy Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King and the Rise of American Sea Power, 1897?1947【電子書籍】[ David Kohnen ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞An authoritative account of the rise and fall of American sea power between 1897 and 1947 and the definitive biography of Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King. Between 1897 and 1945 the US Navy rose to lofty heights, with huge manpower, a lavish roster of ships, and a hard-earned reputation for professionalism and potency. By 1947, in the wake of the Second World War, the Navy, although still powerful, had been significantly scaled down; much of the senior leadership retired and the wartime edge gradually dulled. This period from 1897 to 1947 was witnessed and to a large degree driven and determined by two admirals, Ernest J. King and King's mentor William S. Sims. These admirals were empowered by two giants of American political and military history, Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Through the lives of King, Sims, and the Roosevelts, Naval War College historian David Kohnen has crafted a sweeping history of American sea power from 1897 to 1947. This epic work was made possible through 20 years of research and writing. By accessing undiscovered and recently declassified source material, along with the full cooperation of the King and Sims families, the author has been able to tell new stories and draw fresh conclusions, making this volume a must-have for scholars of naval history.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	2,816円
Colors & Markings of the F-14 Tomcat, Part 1 Atlantic Fleet and Reserve Squadrons【電子書籍】[ Bert Kinzey ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is considered by many to be the most iconic naval fighter aircraft of the latter half of the twentieth century. ＜em＞＜strong＞Colors & Markings of the F-14 Tomcat, Part 1: Atlantic Fleet and Reserve Squadrons＜/strong＞＜/em＞ is a comprehensive look at the paint schemes and unit markings used by operational F-14 squadrons assigned to the Atlantic Fleet from 1974 through 2006.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The book covers the fifteen active Atlantic Fleet fighter squadrons and the two Naval Reserve units that flew the Tomcat during its entire thirty-two year career. Beginning in 1974, when the F-14 entered service with VF-14 “Tophatters,” VF-32 “Swordsmen,” and VF-143 “Pukin’ Dogs,” the Tomcat distinguished itself, first as an outstanding fighter and fleet defense interceptor, tactical reconnaissance aircraft, and later as strike aircraft in its “Bombcat” role.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This compilation of squadrons includes eleven units that were assigned to the Atlantic Fleet for the entire time they flew the F-14. Two additional Atlantic Fleet squadrons were reassigned to the Pacific Fleet during the time they flew Tomcats before returning to the Atlantic Fleet during their final years in the F-14. Finally, two squadrons that began their F-14 operational service with the Pacific Fleet were later assigned to the Atlantic Fleet for their final years of Tomcat service, and these are also included.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A short history is provided for each of the seventeen fighter squadrons that summarizes the operational highlights and carrier assignments for the unit during the time it flew the Tomcat. Also included with the history is a review of the squadron markings the unit used on their aircraft. This explains how those markings evolved over time as the Navy moved from the Light Gull Gray over Insignia White paint scheme, to the overall Light Gull Gray scheme, and finally to the several very low visibility exteriors that were classified as tactical schemes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The move from the gray over white scheme, which featured some of the most colorful aircraft markings ever displayed on U. S. Navy aircraft, to the lower visibility schemes led to a much more drab and understated look for the F-14. Yet even through the latter stages of its career, special aircraft in each unit, including the X00-modex Tomcat assigned to the Carrier Air Wing Commander (CAG) and the X01-modex aircraft assigned to the squadron commander (CO), allowed a limited number of colorful squadron markings to continue. Additionally, anniversary markings, holiday markings, and retro markings also added color to a few aircraft. Each unit section has a selection of photographs that chronicles the evolution of markings throughout the years the squadron flew the F-14.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Part 1 will be followed by two additional volumes. Part 2 will cover the Pacific Fleet and Reserve Squadrons. Finally, the third book in the trilogy will take a look at the prototypes, early developmental Tomcats, those assigned to test and evaluation squadrons and facilities, TOPGUN, adversary Tomcats, miscellaneous and utility units, and NASA. Additionally, the official paint schemes used by the U. S. Navy with be covered, as will a detailed look at the standard markings and stenciling used on Tomcats.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The digital edition of ＜em＞＜strong＞Colors & Markings of the F-14 Tomcat, Part 1: Atlantic Fleet and Reserve Squadrons＜/strong＞＜/em＞ has 216 pages, 317 full color, high resolution photographs, and 25 color profiles.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	2,600円
Century of the Seas: Unlocking Indian Maritime Strategy in the 21st Century - Significance of Indian Ocean to Protecting India Overseas Trade from Threats, Fleet Modernization in the South Asia Region【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This late 2017 report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction.＜/p＞ ＜p＞India's maritime security strategy document, Ensuring Secure Seas, was released in 2015 and sets the Indian Ocean as a priority for India's foreign policy with the goal of maritime dominance. What are the driving factors that influence this new maritime strategy that elevates the Indian Navy beyond its traditional "Cinderella service" role? This thesis attempts to answer this question. In order to accomplish this objective, this thesis looks at the significance of the Indian Ocean for the major state and non-state players that have considerable stakes in the region, as well as their maritime capabilities relative to India. Next, the thesis examines India's modernization efforts of its fleet and naval doctrine to carry out the roles defined in Ensuring Secure Seas. Finally, this thesis examines India's economic policies, specifically maritime trade, as well as domestic politics, to see how they engage and shape Indian maritime strategy. These findings present a combined analysis of economic, security, and political factors mentioned above, centered on a primary focus of security and stability within the Indian Ocean region, to foster continued prosperity of India's overseas trade networks. The driving factors that shape Ensuring Secure Seas are heavily influenced by India's overseas trade and the need to protect that trade against various threats. This study should benefit strategists and policy-makers alike with regard to the South Asia region.＜/p＞ ＜p＞I. INTRODUCTION * A. MAJOR RESEARCH QUESTION * B. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESEARCH QUESTION * C.

The Fleet Air Arm and the War in Europe, 1939?1945【電子書籍】[ David Hobbs ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜strong＞A comprehensive history of the Royal Navy’s naval aviation component’s campaigns during World War II.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞For the first time, this book tells the story of how naval air operations evolved into a vital element of the Royal Navy’s ability to fight a three-dimensional war against both the Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe. An integral part of RN, the Fleet Air Arm was not a large organization, with only 406 pilots and 232 front-line aircraft available for operations in September 1939. Nevertheless, its impact far outweighed its numbersーit was an RN fighter that shot down the first enemy aircraft of the war, and an RN pilot was the first British fighter “ace” with 5 or more kills. The Fleet Air Arm’s rollcall of achievements in northern waters went on to include the Norwegian Campaign, the crippling of Bismarck, the gallant sortie against Scharnhorst and Gneisenau as they passed through the Channel, air attacks on enemy E-boats in the narrow seas, air cover for the Russian convoys, air attacks that disabled Tirpitz, and strikes and minelaying operations against German shipping in the Norwegian littoral that continued until May 1945. By the end of the war in Europe the FAA had grown to 3243 pilots and 1336 aircraft.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book sets all these varied actions within their proper naval context and both technical and tactical aspects are explained with “thumbnail” descriptions of aircraft, their weapons and avionics. Cross reference with the Fleet Air Arm Roll of Honour has been made for the first time to put names to those aircrew killed in action wherever possible as a mark of respect for their determination against enemy forces on, above and below the sea surface which more often than not outnumbered them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Fleet Air Arm and the War in Europe＜/em＞ completes David Hobbs’s much-praised six-volume series chronicling the operational history of British naval aviation from the earliest days to the present.＜/p＞ ＜p＞**Praise for ＜em＞The Fleet Air Arm and the War in Europe＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“In this masterly addition to his series on the Fleet Air Arm at war, David Hobbs addresses naval air operations in the Atlantic, the North Sea, the Arctic, and the English Channel.” ーProfessor Andrew Lambert, ＜em＞Warship 2023＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“With lots of action it rattles along and is a very good read.” ー＜em＞The Armourer Magazine＜/em＞, May 2022**＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	2,728円

PLOTINUS Ennead IV.8 On the Descent of the Soul into Bodies【電子書籍】[ Barrie Fleet ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Plotinus was much exercised by Plato's doctrines of the soul. In this treatise, at chapter 1 line 27, he talks of "e;the divine Plato, who has said in many places in his works many noble things about the soul and its arrival here, so that we can hope for some clarity from him. So what does the philosopher say? It is clear that he does not always speak with sufficient consistency for us to make out his intentions with any ease."e; The issue in this treatise is one that has puzzled students of Plato from ancient to modern times-and is indeed a popular topic for undergraduate essays even today: Why should the philosopher, who has ascended through a long and painful process of dialectic to "e;assimilation to the divine,"e; ever descend back into the body? Plotinus himself is said by Porphyry to have attained such a state of other-worldly transcendence on at least four occasions during his lifetime, so this was a very real and personal issue for him. In this treatise we see him grappling with it.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	5,871円
