Compiled from documents in naval and aerospace museums around the world, this is a unique look at the ships of sea, air, and space that have carried the name Enterprise -- a name with a heritage spanning more than 800 years. For the first time, it's all here in one concise volume: o A detailed, 130-page narrative history of the ships and their heroic crews. o More than 80 illustrations, including official photographs and ship profile drawings. o An appendix listing more than 190 vessels named Enterprise. o Extensive notes and a bibliography listing more than 110 sources for further reference. This isn't just a book of facts and figures, but a stirring tale of adventure, discovery, and courage, often told in the words of those who were there. This revised 2nd edition updates the stories of the naval vessels through the deactivation of the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN-65) and the latest adventures of the starships Enterprise.
