Publisher Description

A New York Times bestseller
 
The secret history of America's submarine warfare is revealed for the first time in this "vividly told, impressively documented," (The New York Times) and fast-paced chronicle of adventure and intrigue during the Cold War.

For decades, only a select and powerful few knew the truth about the submarines that silently roamed the ocean in danger and in stealth, seeking information and advantage. Based on six years of groundbreaking investigation into the “silent service,” Blind Man’s Bluff uncovers an epic story of adventure, courage, victory, and disaster beneath the surface. With an unforgettable array of characters from the Cold War to the twenty-first century, Sontag and Drew recount scenes of secrecy from Washington, DC, to the depths of the sea. A magnificent achievement in investigative reporting, Blind Man’s Bluff reads like a spy thriller with one important difference: everything is true.

DWFREIDELL ,

For the Submariners and Navy personnel this is a must read!

This book is a historical description of the many stories that have taken the Submarine fleet from where early days were to the place is is today. Many of these stories have never been told and likely have been classified top secret prior to this book. It is a long book, but worth the read.
