Evidence later obtained from underwater cameras shows that the blast tore open the entire double-hulled forward section of the 505-ft. vessel, an area the size of a school gymnasium. Seawater would have slammed into the torpedo and cruise-missile compartments, instantly killing the men on duty there. In the control room just aft of the shattered weapons compartments, Lyachin, the five staff officers and the dozen or so officers and petty officers manning the ship's controls would have had no time to react before the combined power of the blast and seawater tore through, destroying the gleaming...

Open-collared, with honeyed light slanting through the windows behind him, as if he's restoring a beautiful old house and just finished setting a dovetail joint, he tells us, "This is a moment in history when we have the chance to focus on tough problems.
