Book Synopsis U. S. Coast Survey Vs. Naval Hydrographic Office by : Thomas G. Manning
Book excerpt: This is an account of a classic turf battle in Washington, D.C. and one that kept flaring up for decades. The fact that it has not been resolved whether military or civilian organizations can conduct federal scientific investigations better, or whether the military should do anything more than defense, lends a timelessness to this story.
