Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Third Printing. 428 Pages Indexed. Very light, barely noticeable, evidence of moisture exposure to the bottoms of pages 400-421 (Index and Bibliography). There is no staining. All pages are white and tight. Remaining pages are flawless. Chosen by WWII History magazine as one of the Best Boo…ks of the Year. In the dark days after Pearl Harbor, the small, ill equipped arm of the Navy known as Submarine Force would stand between the shattered U.S. Pacific Fleet and the might of the Japanese Navy. Unfortunately, the spirit and courage of the Submarine Force is being forgotten as the veterans of that force pass into history. To preserve their heroic tales of war beneath the sea, critically acclaimed author and military historian Flint Whitlock, in collaboration with decorated World War II submarine veteran Ron Smith, set out on a journey of more than two years to interview submariners and to record their accounts before the memories of their endeavors are lost forever. These are their stories.
