Summary:
A
young
readers
edition of Doug Stanton and Michael J. Tougias' New York Times bestseller In
Harm
's Way--a riveting World War II account of the greatest maritime disaster in US naval history. On July 30, 1945, the U.
S
.S.
Indianapolis
was torpedoed in the South Pacific by a Japanese submarine. An estimated 300 men were killed upon impact; close to 900 sailors were cast into the Pacific Ocean, where they remained undetected by the navy for nearly four days and nights. Battered by a savage sea, they struggled to stay alive, fighting off sharks, hypothermia, and hallucinations. By the time rescue arrived, all but 316 men had died. The captain'
s
subsequent court-martial left many questions unanswered: How did the navy fail to realize the
Indianapolis
was missing? And how did these 316 men manage to survive against all odds? This thrilling wartime account of heroism and survival, Book 5 in the True Rescue narrative nonfiction series, is inspiring and unforgettable--the perfect choice for
young
adventure-seekers.
