(Subject: Naval & Maritime: Ships, Submarines & Other Vessels - General) Admiral Galantin tells the story of the amazing evolution of the submarine, from the civil war era to today's nuclear boats. From 1920, his first year at Annapolis, until 1970 when he retired, the US Navy evolved from a floating bureaucracy, to a force capable of projecting US power on the high seas. The story of Galantin's forty one year, adventure filled career is told in a readable and exciting style. He recounts the birth of Admiral Rickover's nuclear navy with the sub-polar voyage of USS Nautilus, the tragic loss of the Thresher, and the advent of the huge Ballistic Missile submarines of the Los Angeles Class.
