Description

Explore the evolution of naval power with Nautilus to Columbia: 70 years of the US Navy's Nuclear Submarines. This highly illustrated history provides a deep look at the development of the nuclear-powered submarine program, starting from the postwar era through to the modern Columbia-class SSBNs. Author James C. Goodall examines the design and origins of the fleet, tracing the impact of Admiral Hiram G. Rickover, known as the Father of the Nuclear Navy. You will learn about the revolutionary shift in submarine warfare that began with the commissioning of the USS Nautilus (SSN 571) in 1952. Before nuclear power, submarine fleets were limited to surface travel at night, but this new technology changed everything. This book is an essential resource for readers interested in naval architecture, marine engineering, and the history of maritime technology.
