  • Ice Diaries : The Untold Story Of The USS Nautilus And The Cold Wars Most D

    $19.99

    Now, for the first time, the captain of the submarine USS Nautilus tells the newly declassified story of his ship’s desperate Cold War race beneath the polar ice pack.

    The Cold War was in full swing. The Soviet Union had just successfully launched Sputnik, and President Eisenhower badly wanted to redeem the reputation of the US as technologically superior. “Operation Sunshine” was the answer: under top-secret orders, the Captain and crew of one of the first nuclear submarines, the USS Nautilus, crossed under the North Pole and became the first naval vessel to forge all the way under the polar ice pack to emerge near the former Soviet Union. Readers will voyage along with Captain Anderson as he shares newly declassified stories of his sub’s encounters with terrible storms, fire in the hold, collisions with ice, broken compasses, and more.
