The acclaimed naval historian vividly narrates a true story of Cold War submarine espionage from the perspective of the vessel's commanding officer.

In Stalking the Red Bear, US Naval historian Peter Sasgen reveals the untold story of a covert submarine operation that took place deep within Soviet-controlled waters. Told in novelistic fashion, with names changed to protect sensitive military secrets, this work brings readers beneath the waves and inside the hull of a nuclear-powered Sturgeon-class submarine -- and to the frontlines of America's top-secret program spying on the Russian navy.

Cloaking itself in virtual invisibility, the USS Blackfin goes sub vs. sub in the perilous waters north of the Arctic Circle. Through the eyes of the commanding officer, readers experience the moment-to-moment drama, with all the sights, sounds, and dangers unique to submarining.
