Book excerpt: This account of a disaster at sea during World War II is “a powerful and engrossing story of tragedy, survival, and heroism” (Mark Bowden, author of Black Hawk Down). In the final days of 1944, Admiral William “Bull” Halsey is the Pacific theater’s most popular and colorful naval hero. After a string of victories, the “Fighting Admiral” and his thirty-thousand-man Third Fleet are charged with protecting General MacArthur’s flank during the invasion of the Philippine island of Mindoro. But in the midst of the landings, Halsey attempts a complicated refueling maneuver—and unwittingly drives his 170 ships into the teeth of a massive typhoon. Halsey’s men find themselves battling ninety-foot waves and 150 mph winds. Amid the chaos, three ships are sunk and nearly nine hundred sailors and officers are swept into the Philippine Sea. For three days, small bands of survivors battle dehydration, exhaustion, sharks, and the elements, awaiting rescue. It will be up to courageous lieutenant commander Henry Lee Plage to defy orders and sail his tiny destroyer escort, the USS Tabberer, back into the storm to rescue drifting sailors. Revealing a little-known chapter of WWII history in absorbing detail, this is “a vivid tale of tragedy and gallantry at sea.” (Publishers Weekly).

Their builders in East Coast states from Maine to Florida are discussed in detail, as are the men, and a woman in one instance, who commanded and manned these ships. The book documents the roles that owners and shipping agents played, what kinds of cargo the ships carried worldwide and the unusual trades in which they participated.

Download or read book Island of the Blue Dolphins written by Scott O'Dell and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 1960 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far off the coast of California looms a harsh rock known as the island of San Nicholas. Dolphins flash in the blue waters around it, sea otter play in the vast kep beds, and sea elephants loll on the stony beaches. Here, in the early 1800s, according to history, an Indian girl spent eighteen years alone, and this beautifully written novel is her story. It is a romantic adventure filled with drama and heartache, for not only was mere subsistence on so desolate a spot a near miracle, but Karana had to contend with the ferocious pack of wild dogs that had killed her younger brother, constantly guard against the Aleutian sea otter hunters, and maintain a precarious food supply. More than this, it is an adventure of the spirit that will haunt the reader long after the book has been put down. Karana's quiet courage, her Indian self-reliance and acceptance of fate, transform what to many would have been a devastating ordeal into an uplifting experience. From loneliness and terror come strength and serenity in this Newbery Medal-winning classic.
Download or read book The Ghost Ship Mutiny written by Craig L. Barnum and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true account of events aboard a US Navy ship at a difficult time in history—the height of the Vietnam War in 1969. American social unrest was widespread in big cities and college campuses. While President Nixon claimed to have a plan to end the war, he was secretly expanding it into Cambodia causing death and carnage. The US Navy aircraft carrier, USS Constellation, is finishing an eleven month war deployment and will return home for a shipyard overhaul and training period before redeploying. As the carrier’s communications officer, the author is responsible for the communication traffic of a small city, as well as holding the codes to be used together with the captain’s for any nuclear operations. This young Navy pilot will experience some very unique events during the ensuing eighteen month turn-around period. Racial problems, drugs, crew morale, long periods away from home, and the deteriorating public attitudes toward the war are worsening onboard. The new commanding officer has some novel ideas about handling the worsening problems, and the communications officer tries to help. The carrier crew unhappily finds it is not immune to what is happening in US society. Anti-war activities against the ship and crew develop quickly upon their return to homeport. To make matters worse, the captain becomes unduly suspicious about certain conditions on the ship. After many twists and turns, the situation finally appears to have settled down, only to abruptly change.

It is again narrated by Horn, who has embarked on a quest in search of the heroic leader Patera Silk. Horn has traveled from his home on the planet Blue, reached the mysterious planet Green, and visited the great starship, the Whorl and even, somehow, the distant planet Urth. But Horn's identity has become ambiguous, a complex question embedded in the story, whose telling is itself complex, shifting from place to place, present to past.
