Rickover: Underway, My Way (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798250536158)

Admiral H.G. Rickover transformed the U.S. Navy through his unwavering commitment to excellence and his mastery of nuclear engineering.

Rising from the slums of Poland, he lead the way to the development of the first nuclear-powered submarine, the Nautilus, and the first civilian nuclear power plant, Shippingport Power Station.

Rickover was both a bold thinker and a fierce fighter. He lived by his rules without compromising principle.

As a leader, he was often considered acerbic, unorthodox, demanding, and unyieldingly committed to his point of view. He was both hated and loved for his achievements and eccentricities throughout his 64-year career. Despite the resistance from the Navy and from industry, he got things done, building the Nautilus in just five years.

When he died, he left behind a legacy, a foundation devoted to preparing young scholars for careers in STEM.

Rickover: Underway, My Way isn't just a book about a great man in history. It is a book that provides a pathway to achieving greatness.
