As tensions rose, naval forces from both sides spread across the world's oceans, with the US Navy's Second Fleet patrolling the North Atlantic and the Sixth Fleet stationed in the Mediterranean.

From 1949 to 1989, the Iron Curtain divided Europe and sparked the Cold War between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. As tensions rose, naval forces from both sides spread across the world's oceans, with the US Navy's Second Fleet patrolling the North Atlantic and the Sixth Fleet stationed in the Mediterranean. In Over Cold War Seas, aviation expert Michael Napier chronicles the development of naval air power during this era, covering all major aircraft types including fixed-wing and helicopters. Along with over 240 images and first-hand accounts, this thorough analysis delves into the evolution of these machines from simple transport and rescue vehicles to multi-purpose weapons capable of anti-submarine and airborne early warning duties.

I was happy to discover Merwin's poetry.
Format: Paperback
Great collection of some of Merwin's early poetry. There's a mystical mysterious feel too a lot of his writing, which I like.

A Reading of "The Last One"
Format: Paperback
This poem represents Merwin at his insidious best, the conversational tone of the poem slowly leading to something imminently and undefinably dark, doom-laden. The poem was originally published in "The Lice" a book of poems written in the French countryside where, Merwin says, "I felt at once a profound attraction to the rural world in which I was living and a disquieting recognition of the fragility and uncertainty of my relation to it." "The Last One" ominously conveys that disquiet.
