A great part of Naval history. (Most Sailors consider the cruise book one of their most valued treasures)
You would be purchasing the original Hard Cover book of the USS Cascade AD 16 1958 cruise. Covers are in excellent condition. All pages intact but was separated from the spine. Clear cellophane tape now securely holding the pages to the spine. The book does have some apparent water damage. Couple photos were damage on the inside spine area but still very recognizable. Some pages have flaking from dried water marks.
This would make a great gift for yourself or someone you know who may have served aboard her.
Some of the items in this book are as follows:
Ports of Call with Dates: Palma, Naples, Napoli, Livorino, Barcelona, with Tours of Roma, Pompeii, Vesuvius, Florence, Pisa and Venice.
Change of Command Ceremony
Operations at Sea
Divisional Crew Photos with Names
Many Crew Activity Photos
Plus much more
Over 255 photos and the ships story told on 94 pages.
Once you view this CD you will know what life was like on this Destroyer Tender during this time of peace.
