Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compelling exploration of the proposal to establish a United States Navy Yard in the Delaware River at League Island. The author draws on extensive research and a deep understanding of naval history and technology to argue that the Delaware River is the ideal location for a major shipbuilding facility. The book provides a detailed analysis of the advantages of the Delaware River, including its strategic location, abundant natural resources, and skilled labor force. The author also discusses the challenges of building a Navy Yard in the Delaware River, such as the depth of the water and the potential for ice blockages. However, the author argues that these challenges can be overcome, and that the benefits of locating a Navy Yard in the Delaware River far outweigh the risks. The book concludes with a discussion of the potential economic and military benefits of a Navy Yard in the Delaware River, and argues that it would be a major asset to the United States Navy.
