Unrestricted Warfare
by James F. Derose
Unrestricted Warfare reveals the dramatic story of the harsh baptism by fire faced by U.S. submarine commanders in World War II. The first skippers went to battle hamstrung by conservative peacetime training and plagued by defective torpedoes. Drawing extensively from now declassified files, Japanese archives, and the testimony of surviving veterans, James DeRose has written a fascinating account of the men and vessels responsible for the only successful submarine campaign of the war. They clearly charted a new course to victory in the Pacific.
Nothing Friendly In The Vicinity
by Claude C. Conner
Nothing Friendly in the Vicinity is the remarkable autobiography of an enlisted submariner and his harrowing experiences as a crew member of the submarine USS Guardfish (SS-217) during World War II. Conner's memoir highlights Guardfish's exciting early operations and documents deeply the four war patrols in which he personally participated. The Guardfish's history is marred with a horrendous "friendly-fire" tragedy, when the Guardfish's skipper misidentified and sunk USS Extractor (ARS-15) in a torpedo attack.
