| Crew
members tell their true stories of life under the surface-from
World War II to today's war on terror-in this exceptional
illustrated volume.
From the deadly
undersea warfare of World War II through the silent Cold War
stand-offs in the deep, to the cutting edge technology of
the modern U.S. Navy, submarines have evolved into the front
line of our nation's defense at sea. And the men who sail
them have become heroes above and below the waves. These are
their stories-in their own words. In Sub, author
Mark Roberts has compiled insightful interviews and recollections
from the submarine veterans themselves-accompanied by detailed
photos and illustrations of both man and machine at work.
It's a gripping
chronicle of undersea warfare as told by those who know firsthand
what it means to drop through the hull of a boat, to sink
into the dark, freezing waters of the deep-and to have death
never more than one torpedo away.
Fully illustrated
with photos.
Mark Roberts is the author of over a dozen
works of fiction and nonfiction, including Strike Force
Baghdad.
