Dive! World War II Stories of Sailors Submarines in the Pacific tells the incredible story of America's little known "war within a war" -- US submarine warfare during World War II.Following the attack on Pearl Harbor; the US entered World War II in December 1941 with only 44 Naval submarines -- many of them dating from the 1920s. With the Pacific battleship fleet decimated after Pearl Harbor; it was up to the feisty and heroic sailors aboard the US submarines to stop the Japanese invasion across the Pacific.Including breakouts highlighting submarine life and unsung African-American and female war heroes; award-winning author Deborah Hopkinson uses first-person accounts; archival materials; official Naval documents; and photographs to bring the voices and exploits of these brave service members to life.
