Jim Christley retired from the US Navy in 1982 as a senior chief petty officer having served on seven submarines ranging from diesel to nuclear fast attacks to ballistic missile boats. A student of US submarine technical history, he has written numerous articles and a book on the subject in addition to providing technical illustrations to several notable books on submarine design and history. Jim is a resident of Lisbon, Connecticut. Tony Bryan is a freelance illustrator of many years' experience who lives and works in Dorset. He initially qualified in Engineering and worked for a number of years in Military Research and Development, and has a keen interest in military hardware – armour, small arms, aircraft and ships. Tony has produced many illustrations for partworks, magazines and books, including a number of titles in the New Vanguard series.
Blind Man's Bluff, and The Hunt for Red October immediatlely come into mind when fast attack nuclear submarine's are mentioned, and this new addition offers the reader a fresh focus on the design and development of one of modern warfare's most controversial weapons...Emphasis on pertinent details is prevalent throughout the text to provide the reader the maximum amount of explanation of the subject at hand...the author writes in a style that is both informative, and exciting, being an ex-submariner himself. -Mark R. Smith, Model Shipwrights (November 2007) Whether you are a long time fan of submarines or just learning about them, this is a book you will surely enjoy. It is one that I can readily recommend to you. -Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com (September 2007)
