The complete and dramatic story of how the U.S. Navy's "Silent Service" helped win the most extensive underseas war in history. This 'standard' in the study of submarine warfare. first published in 1949 and repeatedly reprinted, remains the basic primer for those interested in the U.S. Navy's submarine war against the Axis in World War II. Based on war patrol reports, action reports, and other wartime (then) classified information, the data for work was constructed by a team led by Rear Admiral R. G. Voge, USN, who captained the USS Sealion and the USS Sailfish.
The author wrote the book utilizing the compiled data with clearly extensive support from the U.S. Navy. Enduring enough to be nicknamed 'SUBOPS', this well-regarded publication was commissioned by the Bureau of Naval Personnel and remains one of those books that are routinely listed as source material for almost any submarine works dealing with the Second World War.
Theodore Roscoe (1906–1992) was an American biographer and writer of adventure, fantasy novels and stories. Roscoe's stories appeared in pulp magazines including Argosy, Wings, Flying Stories, Far East Adventure Stories, Fight Stories, Action Stories and Adventure.
Roscoe was commissioned by the United States Naval Institute to write the detailed and massive histories United States Submarine Operations in World War II (1949) and United States Destroyer Operations in World War II (1953).
