World War II from a Leader Who Saw the War from Both the White House and the Bridge of a Battleship Vice Admiral John L. McCrea worked with the president of the United States on difficult and unusual assignments, associated with royalty and world-famous political and military leaders, and he commanded the USS Iowa and a task force in the Pacific. Over the years, many urged him to write a book, and before his passing he finally recorded his reminiscences. Captain McCrea’s War captures his amazing tales from the World War II years. After the United States entered the war, McCrea served as a naval aide to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, where he set up the White House Map Room (later known as the Situation Room) and Shangri-La (now called Camp David). He supplied material for the president’s fireside chats, helped arrange the Casablanca Conference, and worked with such prominent leaders as Winston Churchill and General Douglas MacArthur. Despite his important work for the president, McCrea yearned for sea duty. Persuading FDR to release him from the White House, he was given command of the USS Iowa, the country’s newest and largest battleship. With his new ship, McCrea transported Roosevelt and the joint chiefs of staff across the Atlantic for the Tehran Conference and fought with the Fast Carrier Task Force in the Pacific. Captain McCrea’s War ends in April 1945, when McCrea was summoned back to Washington after President Roosevelt’s death.

"Over the years, hitman Tommy Monaghan has made his share of mistakes--some worse than others. The lowlifes he normally takes on (super-villains, mobsters, other characters of low repute) aren''t the most professional of adversaries, so he''s been able to get by on his alien-enhanced abilities and razor-sharp shooting skills. But as good as Tommy may be, he''s no match for the men of Great Britain''s Special Air Service Regiment--something that all of Gotham City is about to discover in a terrifyingly first-hand manner. In the aftermath, Tommy and his partner, Natt the Hat, find themselves seriously questioning their career path. With work drying up at home (not to mention the inconvenience of an all-out mafia vendetta against them), a mercenary assignment in the African wilderness seems like just the ticket. After all, what could possibly go wrong?"--P. [4] of cover.
