How history's only five-star admirals triumphed in World War II and made the United States the world's dominant sea power.

Only four men in American history have been promoted to the five-star rank of Admiral of the Fleet: William Leahy, Ernest King, Chester Nimitz, and William Halsey. These four men were the best and the brightest the navy produced, and together they led the U.S. navy to victory in World War II, establishing the United States as the world's greatest fleet.

In The Admirals, award-winning historian Walter R. Borneman tells their story in full detail for the first time. Drawing upon journals, ship logs, and other primary sources, he brings an incredible historical moment to life, showing us how the four admirals revolutionized naval warfare forever with submarines and aircraft carriers, and how these men -- who were both friends and rivals -- worked together to ensure that the Axis fleets lay destroyed on the ocean floor at the end of World War II.

Nice shirt.
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
Good neck height, not too high, firm neck grip without the choke feel. Clean look when wearing under an open shirt or looks good alone, Soft feel against the skin, and it washes well, no pulling or color fade. semi-form-fitting on the body, but not tight for the size. priced well.

A Difficult to Find T-Shirt
These T-Shirts are nice. A super difficult to find. The manufacturer calls it a mock-turtle neck (MTN). But the collar height is actually a bit shorter than the traditional MTN, which is great. It's closer to a regular T-Shirt that comes all the way to the neckline. And very somt a comfortable. This is the perfect style of T-Shirt to wear under a sportscoat, if desired. Or under a shirt where you want the T-Shirt to show for contrast. Just the right look.
