Interesting to see that Apollo 14 Moon Book as each US Navy cruise published a special book for their Apollo (Skylab) recovery mission !
So in this case a special cruise book for the January 1971 USS New Orleans mission, which also recovered Skylab 3 & 4 and ASTP (1975).
Photo shows the well-known Apollo 11 recovery mission cruise book of USS Hornet, together with two books on Splashdown recoveries..
