Book Description:

His family says he was a great story teller. Yet Vice Admiral Allan Rockwell McCann left no reminisces that might reveal a deeper sense of his extraordinary service to the US. In his four-decade military career spanning two world wars, he rarely discussed for the record the many historic circumstances that enveloped him. This is an overdue appreciation of the admiral who has all but been ignored in naval history.
