about

Hyman George Rickover (1899–1986) was an almost mythical figure in the United States Navy. Possessing engineering brilliance, a ferocious will, and an indefatigable work ethic, he oversaw the development of nuclear power generation. This new biography explores how Rickover ultimately revolutionized the navy and Cold War strategy.
