Description:

Few know how close the world has come to annihilation better ì than the warriors who served America during the tense, ì forty-six-year struggle known as the Cold War. Yet for decades ì their work has remained shrouded in secrecy. Now, in this ì riveting new history, W. Craig Reed, a former U.S. Navy diver and ì fast-attack submariner, provides an eye-opening, pulse-pounding ì narrative of the underwater struggles and espionage operations ì between the United States and the former Union of Soviet ì Socialist Republics that brought us to the brink of nuclear war ì several times. Red November is filled with new revelations ì and never-before-reported stories that take you deep beneath the ì surface and into the action during the entire Cold War period ì from 1945 through 1992. Reed served aboard submarines involved in ì espionage operations, and his father was a top naval intelligence ì specialist intimately involved in the Cuban Missile Crisis. Reed ì is one of the first authors to obtain in-depth interviews with ì dozens of navy divers, espionage operatives, submariners, and ì government officials on both sides (including several Soviet ì submarine captains), who describe the most daring and decorated ì missions of the conflict, including the top-secret Ivy Bells, ì Boresight, Bulls Eye, and Holystone operations.
