Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Delaware Bay at War!The Coastal Defenses of the Delaware Bay during World War IIThe defense of America's seacoast has been one of the key concerns since the earliest years of the Republic. American coast defense steadily evolved through the age of muzzle loading cannon, ever larger breech… loading weapons, and finally the culmination of the large, long range guns capable of targeting the largest and most heavily armed warships of their age. By the end of World War Two, the United States had some of the strongest coast defenses in the world. Given the importance of the military-industrial complex along the banks of the Delaware River, including the large Philadelphia Naval Shipyard and explosive factories of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, the defense of the Delaware River had a prominent role in America's military planning from the American Revolution to the end of World War Two.This book tells the story of the American coastal defenses of the Delaware Bay during World War Two. While the Delaware River has been defended and fought over since colonial times, in the years approaching the World War Two its defenses were either obsolete or lacking. Starting in 1930's the US Army and Navy developed plans for new defenses at the Delaware Capes which led to an intense construction and manning period from 1941 to 1944. While assaulted by German U-Boats, the surface attacks did not reach Delaware Bay so after 1944 the soldiers and sailors manning these defenses were mobilized overseas. By 1946 most of these defenses were abandoned, although new Cold War defenses in the coming years used this infrastructure to defend the United States against new threats.Over one hundred rare black & white US Army photographs and plans help document our nation's extensive effort to defend against possible naval attacks and raids from Nazi Germany. A collection of over 50 recent color photographs are also included allowing the reader to survey the surviving elements of these mighty defenses. A product of extensive research, this book brings together for the first time rare images and the little known military history of the Delaware Bay.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - American Seacoast, Anti-aircraft, and Railway Artillery 1886-1955 is the first comprehensive illustrated reference guide to the static artillery systems that defended American shores and supported ground operations from the adoption of modern breechloading weapons through the early Cold War. Author…Glen M. Williford presents detailed technical and historical profiles of more than 80 types of rifled artillery employed by the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps - covering seacoast guns, anti-aircraft weapons, and railway artillery in a single authoritative volume. At the heart of this work is the most complete treatment of American seacoast artillery ever published. No previous reference has systematically documented the full range of coastal defense guns developed and deployed during this seventy-year period. Drawn primarily from original military technical documents and records held at the National Archives, each weapon type receives focused coverage: development history, technical specifications, production details, combat employment, and notes on surviving examples. The book's text is supported by more than 300 period photographs, technical drawings, and diagrams. Organized for quick reference, this 320-page hardcover volume serves military historians, artillery enthusiasts, collectors, and curators responsible for preserved weapons. Whether identifying a gun on display at a local memorial, researching fortification armament, or documenting a privately held artillery piece, readers will find this the essential identification guide to American static artillery of the modern era. A companion to Williford's earlier American Breechloading Mobile Artillery, this work completes coverage of U.S. artillery technology from the late 19th century through the Korean War. The author has invested over 30 years of research into this book, making it the primary source on these historic weapons and a valuable resource for any serious scholar of American artillery.
