Product Information
A lasting memorial to the USS Enterprise, this classic tale of the carrier that contributed more than any other single warship to the naval victory in the Pacific has remained a favorite World War II story for more than twenty-five years. The Big E participated in nearly every major engagement of the war against Japan and earned a total of twenty battle stars. The Halsey-Doolittle Raid; the Battles of Midway, Santa Cruz, Guadalcanal, the Philippine Sea, and Leyte Gulf; and the invasions of Iwo Jima and Okinawa are all faithfully recorded from the viewpoint of the men who served her so well. The author, a naval aviator, focuses on the exploits of the famous ship's air groups, capturing the reality of their encounters and provoking a range of emotions from readers. This superb study of a great ship, her crew, and the action they saw has been called one of the finest pieces of naval writing to emerge from the war. What it is like inside the cockpit of a Dauntless dive bomber as it bores in on its target or the effort required to unstick the ship's huge rudder when damaged by a bomb are just two of the nuggets Edward Stafford mined from the mountain of research and lengthy interviews he conducted to write the book. Literate and scholarly as well as highly dramatic, the book will appeal to historians and the general public alike.

Reviews
"A naval classic first published in 1962, Stafford's The Big E set a high standard for books about World War II, especially those about a ship and its crew. The aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, the Navy's most famous and decorated ship of the war, was scrapped before Stafford, a naval aviator himself, wrote the book, which might have motivated the nation to save the ship. Stafford's extensive research and interviews with the ship's crew and air group cemented in print the extraordinary combat record of the ship with fresh recollections of the combat action. With this edition, published decades later, the Naval Institute Press turned 'The Big E' into a beautifully illustrated large-format book that adds images, sidebars and appendices to Stafford's work to bring the ship alive to new readers."--Seapower, A naval classic first published in 1962, Staffords The Big E set a high standard for books about World War II, especially those about a ship and its crew.
