INTREPID: The Epic Story of America’s Most Legendary Warship

"Intrepid's history is our history; her story tells us not just about a ship but also about a country. Long may she serve as a symbol of our country's greatness."—John McCain, from the foreword to Intrepid

"The story of the Intrepid is as fresh and exciting today as it was when the great ship was in the thick of the most ferocious sea battles ever." —Tom Brokaw
