Summary: An enjoyable journey through the development of the US Navy.
Comment: Quarterdeck and Bridge takes the reader through a number of excellent essays that follow the navy from Valcour Island to the Mekong Delta. Though not designed to fully explain the history, Bradford selects essays that deal with specific tactical issues that directly relate to the larger scheme of naval development. One of the most interesting essays involved "War Plan Orange," the plan on how to deal with Japanese aggression. The author asserted that the Navy's planners left the Phillippines to be conquered by the Japanese forces. Overall it is an excellent book, and essential to anyone interested in the study of American seapower.
