NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT- OVERSTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price This book is a companion to the author s "Digesting History "(published by NWCP, sold by GPO, and winner of the North American Society for Oceanic History s 2010 John Lyman Book Prize for Primary Source Materials, Reference Works, and Guide Books). It closely analyzes war gaming at the Naval War college in the academic year 1945 46, as both a reflection and source of the U.S. Navy s doctrinal and strategic responses to the experience of World War II responses that would help the Navy shape its approach to the new conditions from which the Cold War soon emerged, as well as, effectively, lay groundwork for the seminal Maritime Strategy of the 1980s. In the course of analysis the book describes in detail the practice of naval war gaming of which the College was and remains a world leader in that era."
