A fan of Kit Bonner's work

Once again, Kit Bonner's knowledge of naval history has proved a most interesting and thought provoking read. The facts, written so smoothly, one would never suspect it wasn't a novel. His smooth writing allows the reader to step back in time, and to relive each and every carefully researced snipits of our nation's history. In this book, Mr. Bonner tells us about the ships and of a time long sense passed. He writes of a time, and of ships who served their country well, but are now out of the reach of those of us who can only read about them from masterful writers such as Kit Bonner. The Cold War was terrifying to live through, yet Kit stimulates thoughts within the reader...is the Cold War really over? A great read. I'd recommend "The Cold War at Sea: An Illustrated History to anyone who enjoys Naval History. Thank you Kit, and I look forward to your next book.

The Cold War at Sea

This book provides the reader with a visual account of the 46 year war at sea between the Soviet Union and the west. The book will make the reader knowledgeable about the war and reveal many events not previously discussed in other non illustrated books. There are many rare and unusual photographs of the Soviet navy at sea. It is an excellent reference book.
