Refreshing Read by Wonderful Author

If you are a California history fan or a Naval history fan - or both - this is an innovative, colorful treatise on the Navy in San Diego. Bruce Linder clearly knows his stuff, and this book shows his inimitable style.Definitely not a 'coffee table book', and well worth the read, I recommend it highly. :)
