Navy Board Ship Models
by Simon Stephens Nick BallA beautifully illustrated history of the early ship models of the Royal Navy that are prized today as works of art. From about the middle of the seventeenth century, the Royal Navy&’s administrators began to commission models of their ships that were accurately detailed and, for the first time, systematically to scale. These developed a recognized style, which included features like the unplanked lower hull with a simplified pattern of framing that emphasized the shape of the underwater body. Exquisitely crafted, these were always rare and highly prized objects—indeed, Samuel Pepys expressed a profound desire to own one, and today they are widely regarded as the acme of the ship modeler&’s art. Today, examples are the highlights of collections across the world, valued both as art objects and as potential historical evidence on matters of ship design. However, it was only recently that researchers began to investigate the circumstances of their construction, their function, and the identities of those who made them. This book, by two curators who have worked on the world&’s largest collection of these models at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, England, summarizes the current state of knowledge, outlines important discoveries, and applies this newfound understanding to many of the finest models in the collection. As befits its subject, Navy Board Ship Models is visually striking, with numerous color photographs that make it as attractive as it is informative to anyone with an interest in modelmaking or historic ships.

Navy Dog: A Dog's Days in the US Navy
by Captain Neal J. KusumotoNavy Dog is a one-of-a-kind love story between a salty, battle-ready U.S. Navy crew and a little orphan dog.Having Seaman Jenna as the mascot on the USS Vandegrift was never meant to be a statement or symbolic act, or to put the crew on the radars of four-star admirals. Jenna came aboard unannounced, a Christmas gift that brought instant joy to the crew and transformed a gray ship into a home for 225 sailors. Her addition was not pre-approved by the chain of command—contrary to military protocol. Before long, Jenna became a phenomenon—the only dog on a Navy ship since World War II—despite the best efforts to keep her from the public eye. This orphaned Shiba Inu and the displaced crew shared countless adventures and trials during her five years on board. Jenna dodged being eaten in Korea (a country that still views dogs as edible fare), sidestepped Hawaii&’s strict quarantine law, avoided threats of being shot in Australia, charmed a Chinese admiral, and nearly initiated an international incident in Pakistan. Jenna became a symbol of the ship and of free will, and created a bond amongst the crew that remains strong decades later…long after her death. Neal Kusumoto is proud to say that he was the captain of that fine ship, blessed with a magnificent crew that included one special sea dog. Join Seaman Jenna as a part of the crew on her five-year adventure on the high seas.

Navy Football: Return to Glory (Sports)
by T. C. CameronNavy football holds a unique place in college athletics as one of the oldest and most prestigious programs the game has ever known. During the 1950s and 1960s, the Midshipmen were nationally recognized by the major bowl games they played and Heisman Trophy-winning players Joe Bellino and Roger Staubach.

The team's current coach, Ken Niumatalolo, once fired by the academy in the dining room of a McDonald's in 1998, returned to become the winningest coach in school history. Author T.C.

Navy Gun Crew: Protecting the Atlantic Merchant Fleet
by Lieutenant John F. ChildsNavy Gun Crew, first published in 1944, is a firsthand look at a U.S. Navy gun crew assigned to a merchant marine ‘Liberty ship’ in the Atlantic during World War II. The Navy assigned a small gun crew to each merchant ship to provide protection against German U-boats and aircraft. In addition, one member of the crew was a signalman who could send and receive messages via signal flags and blinking light (radio use was limited to prevent the enemy from pinpointing the ship’s location). Navy Gun Crew examines the crew’s training, dockside duties, life at sea, encounters with submarines and aircraft, and a severe Atlantic storm. Although brief (the original book was 111 pages), it provides insight into a little-known yet vital part of the wartime effort to keep supplies flowing from the United States to Great Britain. Included are 27 pages of illustrations by Nils Hogner. Author Lt. John Childs (1910-2009) served in the U.S. Naval Reserve as head of a gun crew, followed by a long and successful finance career on Wall Street.
