Silent Battleground Author: D. M. Ulmer; Editorial Assistant: Doris Littlefield; Managing Editor: Dari Bradley; Executive Editor: Nelson O. Ottenhausen. Wartime operations on board the nuclear submarine USS Denver take an unexpected turn as weapons officer, Lieutenant Brent Maddock, faces numerous challenges to his combat tactics skills from both an elusive enemy and a vindictive and ambitious skipper. While the complex war unfolds beneath the waves, Herculean efforts ashore restore a Washington west coast submarine facility to keep the war defense effort ongoing as the President of the United States resists powerful political advocates for surrender. James H. Patton, CAPT USN (Ret) and technical advisor to the film Hunt for Red October states in his review, Silent Battleground absolutely reeks of both technical and tactical credibility ... readers will find a delightful blend of elements from On the Beach, Incredible Victory, Thirteen Days and Hunt for Red October. Submariners will approve, non-submariners will learn, but all will enjoy Silent Battleground.'
