The Wisconsin fought through the final year of WWII, saw extensive service during the Korean War, and then was recalled to arms to liberate Kuwait during the Gulf War in 1991. During the latter war, Wisconsin not only loosed its massive 16-inch cannons but launched Tomahawk cruise missiles deep into enemy territory. Finally released from Navy service, the battleship today is a floating museum moored near downtown Norfolk, Virginia. This book, through more than 250 photos, documents the battleship from design and construction, through combat during each of its wars, to its preservation today.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 228mmAuthor: David DoyleGenre: Law & PoliticsSubtitle: From World War II to the Persian Gulf to Museum ShipISBN-10: 0764360132Item Width: 19mmItem Weight: 953gBook Series: Legends of Warfare: NavalRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
