A fascinating story about living through an impossible nightmare. I enjoyed it and thought it was good, but not quite as well done as hillenbrand's unbreakable. ( )

This is a quick read and engaging, but I felt like the could have been much more. I was still mixing up some of the men at the end. I think more background about the men and submarine warfare would have helped. ( )

Amazing true story, with an excellent reader, Richard Poe. ( )

This is the story of the men of the Uss Tang, a devastatingly effective Sub in WWII. The sub gets sunk in the Formosa Strait. 9 of the 87 survive. Some of the men were stuck on the bottom of the ocean and had to swim from the wreckage to the surface. Some 180 feet. The crew are the only people ever known to survive a sub crash using the Momsen lung.

One again Kershaw has taken some little known WWII story and turned it into a great story. ( )
