A must have for the historian types. This book is set up like a high school year book. The first 40 pages are the stories with pictures about the USS Alabama service during the war. Pages 41-51 is about the turing the USS Alabama into a memorial and all those persons involved. Pages 52 thru 83 lists all of the sailors whom served on the USS Alabama, and the rest of the book pages 84 thru 128 (end) gives then and now pictures with a biography of the living veterans of the USS Alabama circa 1993. All of the book's photos are in black and white.
