The book "US Navy Gun Destroyers 1945-1988: Fletcher Class to Forrest Sherman Class Osprey New Vanguard 32" provides a comprehensive overview of the development and evolution of the US Navy's gun destroyer fleet during World War II and the Cold War era. The book covers the design, construction, and deployment of various classes of destroyers, including the Fletcher, Sumner, Gearing, and Forrest Sherman classes, and their role in defending against enemy submarines, surface ships, and aircraft. The author, Norman Friedman, is a renowned naval historian and expert on US naval history, providing an in-depth analysis of the technological advancements and innovations that shaped the development of these warships. The book begins with an introduction to the early years of the US Navy's destroyer program, highlighting the importance of these vessels as escorts for convoys and fleet defense. It then delves into the design and construction of the Fletcher class, which was the most numerous and influential class of destroyers in the US Navy during World War II. The author discusses the evolution of the Fletcher class, from its initial design to the final Forrest Sherman class, and how each subsequent class built upon the strengths and weaknesses of its predecessors. One of the key themes of the book is the constant need for technological advancement and adaptation in response to changing threats and evolving tactics.
