From the publisher: The book covers the operational history of the aircraft in squadron service including the reserves and training squadrons and as a squadron utility and command aircraft at Naval Air Stations and facilities.

FSM says: From carrier trials at the end of October 1953 to station and utility aircraft shown in the 1970s, this book is dedicated to squadron and operational histories of the Tracker and Tracer. Although there is no “walkaround” sequence per se, the aircraft are shown from every angle and in their wide range of variants and configurations, each identified by unit and Bureau Number (BuNo) as well as by year. Bonus: 14 color photos on the back cover show colorful options for the Grumman anti-submarine and early-warning airplane.
