jjjl 11 readers will not completely agree with js °Pmions expressed by the author. This A Particularly so in the comments about Cftral William F. “Bull” Halsey, Jr., and Battle at Leyte. Jocko is telling it from the o^age point of Admiral Ernest J. King’s tj( in Washington. A look at the Opera
San Bernardino Straits surprised Admiral Halsey, for it had not been activated. His answer was as follows: “Negative X It is with our carriers NOW engaging enemy carriers.” It was obvious from Admiral Halsey’s point of view that Admiral Kinkaid had intercepted and misconstrued Halsey’s preparatory dispatch about TF-34, which had been sent the previous afternoon. This message said “If the enemy sorties [through San Bernardino], TF-34 will be formed when directed by me.” The record shows it was not formed. It also shows that Kinkaid asked for help and that Halsey then formed TG-34.5 consisting of the battleships New Jersey and Iowa, directing this task group to the Straits at 28 knots with instructions to be prepared for night action.
The writer has discussed this particular point with Admiral Robert B. Carney and the late Vice Admiral James Flatley. Admiral Carney was Chief of Staff and Captain Flatley was in operations for Halsey. The decision to go north with the force was a natural one with the facts at hand. The over-optimistic reports by returning aviators of the damage they had inflicted on Admiral Takeo Kurita’s force and the fact the Japanese force had reversed course were factors in the decision.

Is Soviet naval strategy oriented to defense? Commander Herrick says “yes," in this comprehensive study of the Soviet Navy from the reign of the Tsars to its present strength — a large, strong submarine force, including a ballistic and homing missile capability, a sizable ASW force, and a surface force with surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles. Commander Herrick, now Deputy Director, Communist Affairs Analysis Department, Radio Free Europe, has served as Soviet Navy Analyst in the Office of Naval Intelligence. He has been Assistant Naval Attache in Moscow and has traveled extensively in Russia, participating in cruises aboard ships of the Soviet Navy.

This particular decision has been deb in many places by many people much ,T1 qualified than this writer. The records are the plans and messages are part of n1® t, now. One must read them in detail and 1 ,
the battle at the time in order to render objective judgment. ^
After all these years, it is strange that ^ man who was responsible for speeding up advance across the Pacific is the one v/h0^. in Carrier Admiral, severely taken to task his part in this battle. I feel that, in j ustice^ Admiral Halsey and for the benefit of 111 ^ of us who may have forgotten, this quote t ^ President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s on the State of the Union” delivered to gress on 6 January 1945, deserves repe3*1 now:
Last September ... it was our plan t0 approach the Philippines by further stagf^j taking islands which we may call A, C, an^ E. However, Admiral Halsey reported a'1 recommended that a direct attack on Ley]^ appeared feasible . . . Within the space of1 hours, a major change of plans was accon1 plished which involved Army and NaV! forces from two different theaters of °Pel?’ tions ... a change which hastened 11 liberation of the Philippines and the final da> of victory ... a change which saved UveS which would have been expended in the cap' ture of islands which are now neutralized f®1 behind our lines.
Those who may wish to reflect on and d1^ cuss this battle in detail should never (°r$ this fact. . j

Is hard for one ever to think of Admiral
0ll(> W. Nimitz charging Halsey or any ‘i his other subordinate flag officers with stupidity.” The other so-called “tragic <*kes” listed on page 241 are the opinions |j . e author. They should be viewed in that sCr)0nly- They are certainly not the con- tbo professional historians, hp ■1118 book is quite harsh on many people . s Halsey, some of whom are still living. PfQS not this reviewer’s intent to discuss the S|J J and cons of these criticisms, though it is (jelcient to state that the book would have k 11 a better one over-all if they had not been t^ded. The late Admiral Parsons often this writer: “There is no limit to the a man can do if he doesn’t care who \v the credit.” In this case, Admiral Clark if have had a better, more objective book ,.c had followed this advice.
;tVi ue story in Carrier Admiral of early naval j a,°rs is a good one. Having served on the angley as a pilot and having then been in-
fcts
volved in Fleet aviation in the early 1930s, this writer believes this book accurately mirrors the basic opposition to the coming age of naval aviation. This opposition was peculiar, for, as early as 1922, Rear Admiral William S. Sims, then President of the Naval War College, said that the aircraft carrier was the ship of the future and that the battleship was obsolete. He actually war-gamed a fleet action with only aircraft carriers opposing a battleship fleet. The carriers won, hands down, but the General Board paid little heed to the lesson. Admiral Sims retired soon thereafter, and the “Baker Bakers” continued to rule the day.
The history of the Navy is full of controversy: sail to steam, coal to oil, fossil fuel to atoms, and the argument of battleships versus carriers. One will always find people locked in these struggles, but we can be grateful that progress and much innovation has resulted from these arguments. Carrier Admiral is a story of a period in the Navy which flamed with perhaps the most intense of these controversies. As a text book, its usefulness lies in an analysis of one viewpoint of that period, of the 40 years of Admiral Clark’s distinguished service. It will complement the many others covering this period.
The record shows that Admiral Clark never had anything but an outstanding ship, squadron, division, or fleet during his whole career. Having served with him during his tour as Commander Seventh Fleet, this writer can say he completely understood the operator’s viewpoint and his problems.
A fighter, outspoken, and controversial, Admiral Clark contributed a great deal to his country and to his Navy. This is his book as he saw it, let the chips fall where they may! He, of all people, will not be surprised, however, if many of his friends and contemporaries agree with Larry Bell’s story on page 70: “I’ve got it, your halo is too tight.”

Death in Life: Survivors of Hiroshima
Robert Jay Loften. New York: Random House, 1967. 594 pp. $10.00.
Hiroshima’s physical destruction is both well-known in a popular sense and vastly documented in an historical sense. But until now, nothing has appeared concerning the psychological damage and destruction sustained by the people who survived. In this superb documentary, that particular gap has been closed with an unemotional yet disturbing vividness as recounted from interviews with survivors.
A Dictionary of Battles
David Eggenberger. New York: Crowell, 1967. 526 pp. Illus. $12.50.
Starting with the battle of Megiddo in 1479 BC, through the fighting in Vietnam and to the Arab- Israeli war of 1967, this volume presents the “essential information on all major battles in recorded history.” Entries include the dates, the strategic situations, the principal leaders, numbers of troops involved, tactics, casualties, and the military and political consequences of the actions, two-color maps are plentiful. Entries are arranged alphabetically, and there are crossreferences at the end of each entry to preceding and subsequent battles in the same war. The index is comprehensive and contains titles of alliances and treaties, as well as famous quotations, slogans, catch phrases and battle cries. A unique reference with an obvious place in any military history library.

England and Germany 1740-1914
Bernadotte Everly Schmidt. New York: Howard Fertig, [1916] 1967. 524 pp. Illus. $3.50.
This study, presenting the subject of Anglo-German relations from an historical point of view, was published 50 years ago. The author in the preface to this reprint states that his original conclusions concerning the rivalry, which culminated in World War I, are still valid and the documentation which has come to light since 1914 serves only to confirm those conclusions.
The Fall of Berlin
Marshal Vasli I. Chuikov. New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1968. 261 pp. Illus. $5.95.
The former supreme commander of Soviet Land Forces gives his account of the battle for and the fall of Berlin, with special emphasis on Russian tactics, weapons, and view of the German enemy. While the Marshal’s memoirs are interesting in their own right, the book does suffer one obvious limitation—at the time, he commanded only nine divisions of a total of 193 advancing on Germany—in that he never gives any Russian casualty figures. The translation is not one of the best and there is the irritation of Communist polemics, but the book must be recommended for its rarity and as a companion piece to the author’s earlier work, The Battle for Stalingrad.
The Fall of Sukarno
Tarzie Vittachi. New York: Praeger, 1967. 191 pp. $4.95.
Covering the same tragic period as Indonesian Upheaval, the author concentrates not so much on the massacres themselves, but rather on the personal and political intrigues that went into the whole scheme of plot and counterplot. An Indonesian, he was witness to many of the events described.

A wide-ranging study explores, in considerable detail, the reasons for Great Britain’s involvement in World War I; describes air, sea, and land battles; analyzes the political controversies over the direction of the war; discusses the relations between the United States and Britain both before and after the former’s entry; and looks closely at the impossibility of Wilson’s “peace without victory formula.” In a rather lengthy

The Vaagso Raid
Joseph H. Devins, Jr. Philadelphia: Chilton, 1968. 222 pp. IIlus. $4.50.
In late December 1941, the British very badly needed to demonstrate to the Germans and to themselves that an offensive spirit still flourished. The consequences of the Vaagso Island raid far outweighed the results of the assault itself. Besides gaining important experience in amphibious warfare for themselves, the British unwittingly convinced Hitler that any European invasion would come through Norway. To counter that threat, he moved his fleet and major portions of the Wehrmacht into that country.
The Wars of America
Robert Leckie. New York: Harper and Row, 1968. 1051 pp. Illus. $12.50.
A far ranging and introspective narrative of all American wars, starting in 1609 with Champlain’s shooting at the Iroquois and continuing to the present struggle in Vietnam. This survey is introspective in that an attempt is made to reveal the moral, political, and psychological factors involved in the various conflicts.

Pictures of weapons, the topography, landmarks, fine maps, a special chapter on the Frcl1 cavalry versus the British squares, organization lists, an index, and a bibliography recommend 1 book to any student of military history.

This 21-page article covers seemingly every aspect of the Concorde SST, as the prototype prepares for test flight. Separate sections cover the aircraft’s development, power plant, who will use it, the engineering, electronics, and accessory equipment. Excellent and detailed coverage.
"Soviet Carrier Force”
Phil G. Goulding in Military Review, March 1968. Book Dept., U. S. Army Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas 66027. Pp. 104-105; Illus. $.50.
An excerpt of an address by the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs reviews U. S. carrier force capability versus Russian prospects for sea-based air power. While the Russians have built two “carriers,” these ships more closely resemble the U. S. Navy’s LPDs in outward appearances, if not in functions.
"Systems Analysis—Ground Rules for Constructive Debate”
Alain C. Enthoven in Air Force, January 1968. Air Force Association, 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W-, Washington, D. C. 20006. pp. 33-40. Illus. $.60.
The Assistant Secretary of Defense (Systems Analysis) explains systems analysis as it is used by top managers in the Pentagon. It is “just one name for an approach to problems of decision-making that good management has always practiced,” he said. The “reasoned approach” is put on a day-to-day level and excellent examples are cited of its use.
"Technological Innovation and the Future of Strategic Warfare”
Herman Kahn and Anthony J. Wiener in Astronautics & Aeronautics, New York: 1290 Sixth Ave., Dec. 1967. Illus. $2.00 per copy.
These two prolific commentators on the world situation state that “the aerospace field, especially, should be awake to the swift and extraordinary changes that technological innovation can bring in world affairs and the military outlook.”
