Now Hear This!: A Sailor's Story of WWII

Now Hear This!: A Sailor's Story of WWII

On the Halloween night of 1943 an epic sea battle took place in the North Atlantic between the German submarine U-405 and the American destroyer, USS Borie. Historians would call one of the greatest ship-to-ship death duels in the history of fighting at sea. NOW HEAR THIS!" is a true, captivating WWII saga told largely thru the voices of those who were there. It is immersed in WWII Navy jargon, customs and the good old fashioned humor that got the Greatest Generation thru the war.

Readers will almost smell the salt water and feel the depth charges rattle their teeth when they make way into the Atlantic U-boat war aboard one of the Navy's oldest destroyers, captained by the Navy's youngest skipper, and then engage in one of the most dramatic actions in the battle of the Atlantic. In the Pacific they cruise into the greatest sea battle that history has ever known: The Battle of Leyte Gulf.

"NOW HEAR THIS!" is a compelling, in situ experience, peppered with pertinent historical details about the valiant ships and gallant men who fought for victory in WWII. Those who are edified by larger than life true accounts will love the experience of "NOW HEAR THIS!"
