Description
The story of America's little known war-within-a war-- that of the "silent service" --U.S. submarine warfare during World War II fought in the Pacific Ocean. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the US entered World War II in December 1941 with only 44 Naval submarines-- many of them dating from the 1920s. With the Pacific battleship fleet decimated after Pearl Harbor, it was up to the feisty and heroic sailors aboard the US submarines to stop the Japanese invasion across the Pacific. Including breakouts highlighting submarine life and unsung African-American and female war heroes, award-winning author Deborah Hopkinson uses first-person accounts, archival materials, official Naval documents, and photographs to bring the voices and exploits of these brave service members to life.
