Description
250 pages. Footnotes, bibliography, index. "The first book solely devoted to U-234.

Evaluates the technology carried aboard - an entire ME_262 fighter and submarine stealth electronics - and places the mystery of the uranium oxide cargo in perspective." - from dust jacket. Prior owner's ink stamp inside front board and upon title page, otherwise clean and unmarked with light wear. Dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. Book
