Bay of Pigs "CIA's Cuban Disaster, April 1961 (Cold War 1945 1991)"

Carradice, Phil

Seaforth Publishing

Perhaps not in casualties but as far as prestige and standing in the world were concerned, the Bay of Pigs invasion of 1961 was the worst disaster to befall the USA since the War of 1812 when British forces burned the White House. Badly planned, badly organized, the affair was littered with mistakes from start ...

The War With Hitler's Navy

The War With Hitler's Navy

Stewart, Andrew

Seaforth Publishing

As this well researched work reveals, Hitler's handling the German Navy during the Second World War was full of contradictions.

How the Navy Won the War

How the Navy Won the War

Ring, Jim

Pen and Sword

Verdun, the Somme, Tannenberg and Passchendaele. These epics of destruction and futility are such bywords for the World War I that--Jutland apart--we forget the role played by sea power in the war to end war. The great global conflict is too often narrowed to the fields of Flanders and the plains of Picardy. Now, award-winning ...

Before the Battlecruiser "The Big Cruiser in the World's Navies"

Dodson, Aidan

Pen and Sword

The battlecruiser is perceived by many as the most glamorous of warships, remembered for its triumphs and tragedies in both world wars. Often forgotten are its lineal ancestors, the big cruisers that were constructed as capital ships for distant waters, as commerce raiders, and as fast scouts for the battlefleet during the last decades of ...

The Science of Sailing Part 3 'Phenomena and Drag Originating From The Boundary Layer'

Oossanen, Peter Van

VAN OOSSANEN ACADEMY

The Science of Sailing Part 2 'The Origin and Nature of Fluid-Dynamic Lift and Drag'

Oossanen, Peter Van

VAN OOSSANEN ACADEMY

Equations were derived in Part 1 which revealed that the speed of sailing craft is primarily governed by the values of the aerodynamic- and hydrodynamic lift- and drag forces. It is thus important that those involved in the design of wind-powered boats, yachts, and ships, have a thorough understanding of the origin and nature of ...
