<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Military reporter Offley reveals that the true cause of the U.S.S. "Scorpion's" sinking was buried by the U.S. government. He argues that the search for the missing vessel was a cover-up, devised to conceal the fact that the ship had been torpedoed by the Soviets. 30 b&w photographs.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>One Navy admiral called it one of the greatest unsolved sea mysteries of our era. The U.S. Navy officially describes it an inexplicable accident. For decades, the real story of the disaster eluded journalists, historians, and the family members of the lost crew. But a small handful of Navy and government officials knew the truth: The sinking of the U.S.S. <i>Scorpion</i> on May 22, 1968, was an act of war. In <i>Scorpion Down</i>, military reporter Ed Offley reveals that the true cause of the <i>Scorpion</i>'s sinking was buried by the U.S. government in an attempt to keep the Cold War from turning hot. For five months, the families of the <i>Scorpion</i> crew waited while the Navy searched feverishly for the missing submarine. For the first time, Offley reveals that entire search was cover-up, devised to conceal that fact that the <i>Scorpion</i> had been torpedoed by the Soviets. In this gripping and controversial book, Offley takes the reader inside the shadowy world of the Cold War military, where rival superpowers fought secret battles far below the surface of the sea.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Ed Offley</b> is a seasoned military reporter and the author of <i>Scorpion Down</i> and <i>Turning the Tide</i>. He lives in Panama City Beach, Florida.
