Emergency Deep is authored by a highly-rated, successful commander of a combat submarine in a conflict that while 'cold' could have gone 'hot' at any time. The human side-the personalities, the honest discussions of human behavior, including tension, humor, and occasional terror are handled very well. The volume does an exceptional job of being relatable to anyone who might never get a chance to be in a virtual pressure cooker like a nuclear submarine." - James P. Delgado, author of War at Sea: A Shipwrecked History from Antiquity to the Twentieth Century and Silent Killers: Submarines and Underwater Warfare
"A superb portrayal of a senior command officer conducting some of the most daring, pioneering, exploratory, and military missions it is possible to conceive. It is the description, in part, of primary original geographic, oceanographic, and bathymetric research in some of the most challenging environments the planet has to offer and the human technology, endurance, intelligence, and creativity to match those almost unbelievable and unexplored places, all while maintaining absolute military secrecy and stealth." - Peter J. Capelotti, author of Adventures in Archaeology: The Wreck of the Orca II and Other Explorations
