Praise for this book
This book provides an account of the strategies and tactics as well as the organization and conduct of the U.S. Navy's Taiwan Patrol Force (TPF) in four confrontations between China and Taiwan in the Taiwan Strait. . . .The book recovers several valuable memos and maps from archival obscurity and recounts numerous anecdotes of the tension and tedium of naval operations in the strait.
