The Great Wall at Sea, Second Edition: China's Navy in the Twenty-First Century

Bernard Cole takes a comprehensive look at China€s Navy, a Navy that continues to grow while the U.S. Navy shrinks. Of particular note, according to the author, is Beijing€s increased attention to guarding its vital sea lanes because of the nation€s growing dependence on maritime trade, especially energy supplies. He provides a thorough description of China€s naval establishment, including its personnel system, followed by a detailed view of its ships, submarines, and aircraft, all marked by technical sophistication and capability as China reaches the top rank of the world€s maritime powers. His evaluation is based on extensive interviews with Chinese and other naval experts, in-depth perusal of original documents, and visits to Chinese warships, training facilities, and shore establishments. The Great Wall at Sea is on the U.S. Navy's Professional Reading List.
