Default Book: Splashdown: NASA and the Navy

Anyone read this book from 2004 by Don Blair?

The single review on Amazon.com reads, "A poorly written and edited
attempt to address a neglected chapter in space exploration. Much could
have been written on this subject, however the authors sophomoric
attempt sabotages the effort. Extensive effort was made to describe
ship's and squadrons histories,(done before and far better elsewhere)
Precious little is devoted to spacecraft and splashdown technology, or
any of the drama or near catastrophe of the Liberty Bell and Apollo
Soyuz recoveries."
