-American Reference Books Annual

"A necessity for any library."
-Nautical Research Journal

"Here is the one-volume reference that is a must for every serious Naval buff. . . . Encyclopedic in its immense content and well-illustrated with sharp clear photos, this one volume text . . . is well worth every penny."
-Rod E. Redman, Sea Classics

"The Navy of the Nuclear Age is so straightforward to navigate that it belies the impressive amount of research that went in to preparing it.  Silverstone has provided an invaluable service to histoirans of the US Navy during the Cold War with a research tool tthat brings imporant factual material quickly at hand.  And while the book's current price of $150 might limit individual purchases to serious scholars, it should nevertheless find its way into every library section dedicated to military history and national security studies.  The Navy of the Nuclear Age sends a clear signal that the Cold War remains relevant, and demand continued attention and study." 
-International Journal of Maritime History

"The Navy of the Nuclear Age is an important reference book for the maritime historian. I will look forward to using it and the other volumes in the series for my research."
-William A. Fox, PowerShips, Journal of the Steamship Historical Society
