Monty McCord

The author does a very credible job telling the story of the obscure early US battleship Nebraska (latter BB-14). He also covers the current Trident SSBN Nebraska and summaries of every other naval vessel with a name tied to Nebraska. Nicely done.

Being a well-done grab-bag of historical photographs of the mid-size town in southern Nebraska. The photographs are well-selected and intelligently captioned. Although the book does not purport to be a definitive history, it serves that purpose better, owing to its superior organization, than many a local history, which tend to be jumbled.
