South Pacific Destroyer: The Battle for the Solomons from Savo Island to Vella Gulf - Russell Sydnor Crenshaw [epub] Today only a select few know firsthand what it is like to feel their ship shudder from the blast of their own guns, watch enemy guns flash back, and see friendly ships erupt in flames. Russell Crenshaw is one of those few. His riveting account of the savage night battle for the Solomon Islands in early 1943 offers readers a unique insider's perspective from the decks of one of the destroyers that bore the brunt of the struggle. Russell Crenshaw was a gunnery officer on the USS Maury. His vivid, balanced, and detailed narrative includes the Battle of Tassafarounga in November 1942 and Vella Gulf in August 1943, actions that earned his warship a Presidential Unit Citation and sixteen battle stars. Crenshaw also discusses the impact of radar and voice radio, the shortcomings of U.S. torpedoes and gunfire, and the devastating effectiveness of Japan's super torpedo. Captain Russell Syndor Crenshaw Jr., USN (Ret.), is the author of Naval Shiphandling. Paperback: 304 pages Publisher: Naval Institute Press; 2nd Print edition (September 1, 2009)
