Escape from the Deep - Brand New but shelf worn.The epic story of a legendary submarine and her courageous crew.In the early morning hours of October 24, 1944, the legendary U.S. Navy submarine Tang was hit by one of its own faulty torpedoes. The survivors of the explosion struggled to stay alive one hundred and eighty feet beneath the surface, while the Japanese dropped deathly depth charges from above. With their air supply running out, some of the crew chose to make a daring ascent through the escape hatch. In the end, just nine out of the original eighty-man crew survived. For those who did it was the beginning of a greater ordeal.With the same heart-pounding narrative that made 'The Bedford Boys' and the @Longest Winter' national bestsellers, Alex Kershaw brings to life this incredible story of survival and endurance.
