MUST HAVE FOR ANYONE EVER IN THE NAVY,
By taxman (metro Detroit) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sea Classics (Magazine)
I have subscribed to this magazine for almost 8 years. I found it by accident on a shelf in a bookstore. I wait by my mailbox about the same date each month waiting for the next issue. It combines current events in the US and all other Navies, with articles of a naval nature. It goes into lengthy histories of individual ships, and classes of ships. It provides a complete guide of what is happening to all navies all over the globe. It goes into technical details as far as development of classes of ships, and technologies embarked on board. Many articles are written by the actual sailors who served on board those ships. It also tell of development and abandonment of certain naval technologies throughout the years (ever wonder what happened to the Navy's old hydrofoils, they had a recent article). They go into details that only someone who worked, lived, ate, cried and laughed on board would ever know. It also goes into historical events and analysis of the significance of those events. They provide a balanced approach and avoid anything of a political nature. It may be boring to those not ever deployed on a REAL SHIP or embarked on a REAL CRUISE (and not on those whimpy ocean liners). However, if you know of anyone ever in the Navy (not the air side-they have their own magazine called "Air Classics"), who went to sea or served on a ship, then a subscription to this magazine is a MUST. I have kept every copy of mine over the years and find myself re-reading them over and over.

Worth the read,
By GJL (Madison, WI) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sea Classics (Magazine)
Like most specialty magazines, this has rather variable editorial quality. I have to restrain myself from editing as I read.
I expect many of the authors are semi-pro, at best, but that's just fine with me. I'd rather learn from an expert/veteran than hope for the best from a polished journalist who hasn't been there. Good stories, mostly, and always leaving me wanting more. I think that works out ....

My Dad Loves It!,
By Jolly Roger (El Cerrito, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sea Classics (Magazine)
Got this for my Dad, who was in the Merchant Marines at the end of WWII and was in the Coast Guard after that. In general he's hard to please, but he's told me several times how much he loves this magazine. He even keeps reminding me to renew his subscription!
