The first volume of Friedman's RN destroyer book will be out in June/July of 06. The editing is being done and should be finished in three weeks. Captions are in the process of being written. A very large volume, many drawings, many photos. No operational history due to size of book.
Covers sloops and frigates and the US lease lend DEs. Also the full story of the design (in detail) of the type ONE Hunts. As to price, I have no idea, but save up your pennies.

Cheers,

I thought I heard Friedman had died? Perhaps this book was in works. If that's so I wonder how many other books might still be out there.
