A Log of the Vincennes

Description

AN INTERESTING AND INSTRUCTIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE HISTORY OF WORLD WAR II

The LOG begins with U.S. Sloop Vincennes, which, with the Columbus, used to be the primary American ship to go into Tokyo Harbor (1846).

A contemporaneous account of the shakedown cruise of the U.S. Cruiser Vincennes in 1937 and experiences of the ship before escorting the Hornet at the Doolittle-Tokyo expedition are given.

The contents additionally come with likenesses and biographical sketches of many men lost with the Vincennes; the Chaplain’s Log; experiences at Midway; and a commentary in regards to the third U.S. Vincennes, launched in 1944.

Richly illustrated all over with pictures and maps.
