Manuscript of Video: Hello all, this is my review of US Naval Special Warfare USNS by Greg E. Mathieson Sr. and David Gatley. Now I want to start off with the aesthetics of the book. This is a very well made and a beautiful piece of binding. Synthetic black leather, a bronze seal with a protruding depiction of the northern hemisphere and a special warfare insignia all covered with gold plating. The pages of the book are both sown and glued, for the optimal reading experience. The pictures of the contributing authors are astounding, with many of them being never before seen and behind the scenes glimpses of these esoteric organizations. If you are looking for a sensationalist, partisan bashing and political book, this isn't for you. This material deals solely on the technical aspects of Naval Special Warfare, with the writing done in an easy to read, forward and factual way. It covers everything from the men and women who stock the supplies that the SEALS use in the field, towards the actual operations themselves. The book includes the origins of naval special warfare in WW2 towards what the US military will employ in the future. This work also has several other goodies inside such as a letter from the former president for this book alone, the creed of the Navy Seals, statements from the contributing authors and so on...Now, for the negatives.The reason I gave this book 3 stars was mainly due to the ubiquitous and rather alarming spelling and grammar errors present on almost 50% pages on the book. When a person is willing to dish out $70 on a book touted across the media as a superlative photo/writing documentation of Naval Special Warfare, you expect a work just like that.
