Ship of Ghosts - Video is on Web
C-Span2 now has Jim Hornfischer's talk about his book, "SHIP OF GHOSTS", online. You can watch the hour long talk at the Houston Library on your computer ANY TIME. Don't forget, the film "THE LAST STAND of USS HOUSTON" is now on DVD. We found a blog that gives a lot of information and credit to the Asiatic Fleet. This BLOG is quite intent on providing some accurate history about ABDA!
