Ice Road to Russia is a gripping, true account of the British Arctic Convoys of the Second World War, told in a clear, narrative style that brings the listener onto the freezing decks and into the tense silence between attacks. These were not routine supply runs. They were a lifeline drawn across the top of the world, carrying tanks, aircraft, trucks, fuel, food, and raw materials to the Soviet Union at the moment it was fighting for survival.

Whilst the Kriegsmarine's surface fleet, restricted for much of the period after 1919 by the terms of the Versailles Treaty, was relatively small in comparison to the Royal Navy, it did possess a number of highly potent battleships and other capital vessels that could - and did - pose a major threat to British interests in the North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean. Amongst the most powerful were the two battleships - the Bismarck and the Tirpitz.

The story of USS Phoenix, later known as ARA General Belgrano, is one of the most extraordinary naval odysseys of the twentieth century. From her birth in the shipyards of New Jersey to her fiery baptism at Pearl Harbour, from the island-hopping campaigns of the Pacific War to her second life under the Argentine flag, she lived two dramatic and contrasting existences. This book tells her complete story, exploring how a single warship came to embody the ambitions, tragedies, and controversies of two nations separated by oceans but linked by history.

Warship Builders is the first scholarly study of the US naval shipbuilding industry from the early 1920s to the end of World War II, when American shipyards produced the world's largest fleet that helped defeat the Axis powers in all corners of the globe. A colossal endeavor that absorbed billions and employed virtual armies of skilled workers, naval construction mobilized the nation's leading industrial enterprises in the shipbuilding, engineering, and steel industries to deliver warships whose technical complexity dwarfed that of any other weapons platform.

You’re in the cockpit of the legendary F-14 Tomcat fighter, blazing along at twice the speed of sound seven miles above the ocean and the carrier that hurled you off its deck. You’re practicing dogfighting with “aggressors,” guys on your side flying F-16s. You’re patrolling the tense skies above Iraq, and with the push of a button you can launch the 100-mile Phoenix missile that can blow a foe to scrap before you even see him. You are an expert in fighter tactics and aircraft carrier operations, and it all leads to your command of an F-14 fighter squadron of more than three hundred people.

Lockwood, in his leadership role, knew the skippers and crews of the submarines and retells their wartime successes and tragedies with an intimacy and realism often missing in second-hand accounts.
