Description: This is a nice book with a great history of ownership. There are multiple stamps from the USS Shanghai-La library Commissioned in 1944 and named after the mythical paradise of the same name, Shangri-La participated in several campaigns in the Pacific Theater of Operations in World War II, earning two battle stars. Like many of her sister ships, she was decommissioned shortly after the end of the war, but was modernized and recommissioned in the early 1950s, and redesignated as an attack carrier (CVA). She operated in both the Pacific and Atlantic / Mediterranean for several years, and late in her career was redesignated as an anti-submarine carrier (CVS). She earned three battle stars for service in the Vietnam War. Shangri-La was decommissioned in 1971 and sold for scrap in 1988. The top/bottom of the spine show light wear. There could be light corner issues or creases on a few pages, but overall it’s good. Please review pictures provided and ask any questions before purchase
