Tragedy at seaBy CustomerAn eye opener regarding the history of the sinking of the cruiser Indianapolis at end of world war 2' how it happened; why it took so long for the navy to realize it was sunk; the tragic stories of the seamen who had to survive in the ocean for five days wth no fresh water or provisions; a typical government screwup; too many paper pushers; one hand not knowing what the other was doing; cost many lives; hundreds perished and many survivors told their story; heroes to say the least. The navy tried to put all the blame on the ships captain..read on interesting true history ...0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The true storyBy LOUIThe true true story and not Hollywoods lie. The best story ever. I attended the 72 survivors reunion in Indianapolis July 2017 and can say the book is spot on perfect. Look for a new story from the survivors in 2018. Forget the movie with Cage. not true at all. I also had a hard copy of this book signed by the last survivors to attend this year. 7 survivors attended out of 19 remaining.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. In Harms WayBy CustomerA great read that explains how the people really responsible for the sinking of the Indianapolis hide behind what they didn't do to prevent and/or help the captain and crew. Too bad that they couldn't be charged now. Navy justice is a controlled justice and this book shows how unfair it is to the captain and his crew.
