Carol Comegno is a senior reporter for the Camden Courier-Post newspaper and covered the quest to bring the battleship to Camden, New Jersey. Comegno was aboard for a portion of the Panama Canal transit and covered the arrival of the ship in Camden.
Battleship enthusiasts will love this book for it's plethora of excellent photographs. Sharp readers will notice that a MK-37 director is misidentified as "the forward 16-inch main battery fire control director." What I particularly liked were numerous views of the interior of the ship while in active service; something sadly lacking in most historical works.
At a price of only $24.95, this oversized book is a must for any reference library. Apart from small research errors, Comegno has done a superb job. This book is highly recommended. (DS)
