Bluejacket Admiral : the Navy career of Chick Hayward
"Vice Adm. John T. "Chick" Hayward's long and eventful career spanned the decades from naval aviation's infancy to the dawn of the jet age. A high school dropout who became a nuclear physicist, he was both eminently successful and humanly colorful. The story of his role in the development of the atomic bomb and his interaction with the other Los Alamos scientists who changed the world forever is justification enough for this biography, but Hayward's contributions to the U.S. Navy go significantly beyond that period."
