Pigboat 39: An American Sub Goes to War

" Constructed in 1923, the American submarine S39 was practically an antique when the Japanese struck Pearl Harbor. With defective torpedoes, a semi-trained crew, and a primitive ventilation system (hence the nickname), she nevertheless sank two enemy vessels and eluded pursuit to fight again in the Solomons. This is the little-known story of how an unprepared navy fought with what it had until the tide could be turned. Bobette Gugliotta was one of the S-39 wives. With the technical assistance of her husband, Guy, an officer who served on three of the S-class boats during the war, she presents an accurate and absorbing account of submarine operations and warfare. No less valuable is her candid and sympathetic portrayal of the men and women whose lives were caught up in the voyage of the S-39.

It includes descriptions of the original costumes of each era, which, coupled with their compelling stories, entertain an enlightening the reader. Women of Mexico explores they mostly ignore the lives of these women. Their tenacity and grit constitute an exemplary display of courage and determination in the face of danger, disgrace, burning at the stake, and even the firing squad. In these pages, we are impressed by Cortes's valiant and much-maligned Indian mistress, who acting as translator, guide, diplomat at the Aztec court. She was instrumental in the downfall of the Aztec Empire. The reader will, in fact, empathize with the pride of the age Indian Queen, who stubbornly takes refuge in the temple of her ancestral gods to avoid baptism in the alien new faith of the conquistadores. We sorrow for the brilliant nun whose genius is often compared to that of Leonardo da Vinci for her versatility, and whose intellect and courage bring her great tragedy as well as fame. This is a seminal collective biography of women of Mexico.
