About this product
Product Information
Patrol Torpedo - or PT boats - captured the public's imagination during WWII due to the daring exploits of their crews. Built not of plywood, as many believe, but rather of mahogany planks, and powered by a trio of Packard marine engines, these vessels operated in every theatre, often facing opponents many times their size. The use of PT boats to evacuate General Douglas MacArthur and his family from the Philippines, a story dramatised in the movie They Were Expendable, put the PT boats and their crews in the public forefront, as did John F. Kennedy's loss of PT-109 and the subsequent rescue of him and his crew. This book looks at all the PT boat configurations used by the US Navy during WWII through rare archival photos, augmented by images of the few remaining vessels of the type. Part of the Legends of Warfare series. AUTHOR: Author of over 100 books, David Doyle maritime books are noted for their thorough coverage of historic vessels and his celebrated ability to locate scarce vintage imagery. SELLING POINTS: . History of the design, development, and deployment of the US Navy's famed fleet of PT boats . Chronicles the construction, launch, commissioning, and combat use of PT boats, including John F. Kennedy's ill-fated PT-109 . Profusely illustrated with scarce archival photographs from diverse collections, including previously unpublished images 199 colour and b/w photographs

Really pleased with the book, but slightly disappointed with the length of time it took to arrive. The tracking was a bit basic so once it arrived in country I was unable to track further.
