US Cold War Aircraft Carriers by Brad Elward
The Forrestal class (Forrestal, Saratoga, Ranger, and Independence) was the first completed class of US Navy supercarriers, so-named for their 25 percent size increase over the World War II-era carriers such as the Midway class, and the strength of their air wings. This title deals with this topic.Brad Elward is an attorney-at-law and freelance aviation author. He has written several volumes on post-war naval aviation, authoring several books for Osprey Publishing, and his articles have been published in periodicals such as World Air Power Journal.
Paul Wright has painted ships of all kinds for most of his career, specializing in steel and steam warships from the late 19th century to the present day. He is a Member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and has illustrated the works of Patrick O’Brian, Dudley Pope and C.S. Forester amongst others.
