520 8  In this engaging narrative, brought to life by marine 
       artist Ian Marshall's beautiful full‑color paintings, 
       historian Paul Kennedy grapples with the rise and fall of 
       the Great Powers during World War II. Tracking the 
       movements of the six major navies of the Second World 
       War—the allied navies of Britain, France, and the United 
       States and the Axis navies of Germany, Italy, and 
       Japan—Kennedy tells a story of naval battles, maritime 
       campaigns, convoys, amphibious landings, and strikes from 
       the sea. From the elimination of the Italian, German, and 
       Japanese fleets and almost all of the French fleet, to the
       end of the era of the big‑gunned surface vessel, the 
       advent of the atomic bomb, and the rise of an American 
       economic and military power larger than anything the world
       had ever seen, Kennedy shows how the strategic landscape 
       for naval affairs was completely altered between 1936 and 
       1946. --|cAmazon.com description.
