Power at Sea: Violent Peace, 1946–2006 closes Lisle A. Rose’s epic account of twentieth‑century naval power by chronicling the United States Navy’s post‑World War II transformation into an unprecedented sea‑air‑amphibious force. Covering 1946–2006, the book traces the rise of supercarriers and ballistic‑missile submarines that underwrote a Pax Americana, the Soviet naval buildup after the Cuban missile crisis, the strain of global missions from Korea and Vietnam to Taiwan and the Middle East, and the navy’s evolving role confronting terrorism after 2001—offering a panoramic, narrative view of maritime strategy, technology, and the geopolitics that shaped U.S. maritime supremacy.
This third volume of Rose’s Power at Sea series is presented as narrative historical text (ISBN13: 9780826217035) with a focused, scholarly approach to naval, Cold War, and post–Cold War history; the provided data highlights themes such as carrier battle groups, naval deterrence, and the evolution of maritime technology and doctrine. The author is Lisle A. Rose and the work is positioned as essential reading for understanding U.S. naval dominance; the supplied description does not specify maps, photographs, or notes on rarity.

New: Fresh Out of Bootcamp
Flawless and untested. This book is in pristine, new condition and ready for its first assignment.
Like New: Light Combat Experience
Almost new and in great shape. It has clearly been read before and is ready to fight again, but it shows very little wear from its time in the field.
Good: A Few Scars or Shell Shock
A reliable veteran. The book might have some bent corners or a dust cover with a few scratches, but it’s still sturdy and standing tall.
Fair: Battle-Hardened
Visible signs of a long campaign. Expect some stains, bent pages, and perhaps some minor tears on the cover. It’s seen the trenches, but the intel inside is still solid.
Poor: Survived Iwo Jima
This one has been through the meat grinder. It carries noticeable damage, heavy staining, or significant wear—but like any old soldier, it would love to be read one last time before it retires.
