Book Description
When US landing craft churned toward Normandy on D-Day morning, each was powered by a revolutionary diesel engine developed in a decade-long project overseen by Charles Kettering of General Motors. This book chronicles the development of the practical diesel engine and the impact of both diesel and heavy-duty gasoline engines on the Navy.
