So recently i picked up this book by Tom Stefanick, it was written for the institute for defense and disarmament studies, it was published in 1987.
ISBN 0-669-14015-5
I didn't realize but it is quite in depth with graphs figures maps and other technical details not just with the USN but also the then soviet navies .
Just some pages on my flick through so you can get a jist of what i mean
