Aircraft Carriers at War (A Personal Retrospective of Korea, Vietnam, and the Soviet Confrontation)

Admiral James Holloway offers a firsthand, authoritative account of the Cold War’s naval frontlines—from Korea and Vietnam to nuclear strategy and the evolution of the aircraft carrier. Drawing on his unparalleled experience as combat pilot, fleet commander, and Chief of Naval Operations, Holloway delivers vivid combat narratives, behind-the-scenes insights from the highest levels of military leadership, and a compelling case for the aircraft carrier as the backbone of U.S. sea power. Both a strategic study and personal reflection, this book captures the complexity, danger, and leadership that defined the Navy’s role in avoiding nuclear war while winning the long struggle at sea.
