- Synopsis
- No one ever lived more dangerously than those who took to the depths of the Pacific Ocean in submarines during World War II. In this book the well-known author Edwin P. Hoyt tells the exciting story of those perilous days when submariners of the U. S. navy, at first outnumbered by their Japanese enemies, put to sea in outmoded boats armed with faulty torpedoes. War in the Deep recounts hazardous adventure after adventure experienced by both Americans and Japanese. It follows the comeback of American submarines and their daring forays that led to their vital role in the economic strangulation of Japan.
