Very Good, But not Clancy

Book was better than previous books by Douglass that I have read. Being a life member of the United States Naval Institute I have some knowledge of the proposed "Arsenal Ship" that the author used. He also used a plot ploy of "Micro-management" & "target selection" from the White House, which being a ARMY Special Forces Veteran from the Viet Nam War I am very familiar with (Johnson & then Nixon chose individual targets & "managed" the war themselves. All and all, a great entertaining adventure, but different from Clancy, which it is inevitably compared with. Definitly worth the price of "admission"

U.S. Navy takes on all enemies; foreign and domestic.

This latest part of the "Carrier" series, is one of Douglass's best to date. The Carrier battle group is literally placed in the same position as our Vietnam era forces, with the enemy (Cuban revolutionaries) on one front,and meddling, micro-managing U.S. politicians on the other. Give Douglass his due...the man knows how the military functions, and how it can respond in times of national emergencies. You feel as if you are on the deck of the Carrier Thomas Jefferson, or in the cockpit of an F-18 Hornet. You won't want to put it down!
