Description: You are considering an oversized or trade paperback book, THE FRANKLIN COMES HOME: THE SAGA OF THE MOST DECORATED SHIP IN NAVAL HISTORY by A. A. HOEHLING : PUBLISHER; Naval Institute Press, MD: 1974 copyright, 1997 printing: 132 pages. This is the story of the most decorated warship in U.S. naval history - the aircraft carrier Franklin, which survived an air attack that should have proved fatal. Her agony began in the early morning hours of March 19, 1945, when a lone Japanese plane dropped two bombs on the flight deck - setting off explosions that not only destroyed the planes ready for takeoff but penetrated the hangar deck, filled with gassed-up aircraft loaded with bombs. CONDITION: Minor edge wear. First page has the top right corner cut out. No other known damage. Packages mailed to Illinois addresses will be charged Illinois sales tax. Items paid by Paypal can only be mailed to the address shown on the Paypal payment. SHIPPING TIME I try to ship no later than the next business day after payment. Due to volume, however, I have a noon cut-off, so, if your payment is received after 12:00 noon, it will not be mailed until at least the next business day. Saturdays and Sundays are not business days. Occasionally, I am out of town on Fridays or Mondays. Packages that will be traveling by FedEx Ground or UPS may take an extra day to get shipped as I am not close to their drop-off locations. S/H For MULTIPLE PURCHASES: I will combine multiple items whenever possible and normally reduce total shipping costs. IMPORTANT!!!!!! International Shipping: Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. I will not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" as US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
