Description
Very good, readable account of some important US submarine activities during the Cold War. Espionage is a focus but this book includes amazing tales of trailing Soviet boomers and unravelling the loss of the Scorpion, along with stories on tapping Soviet undersea communications lines and recovering sunken Soviet boats. It covers the political situation and provides good historical context along the way.
