This is the true story of a terrible ship disaster in WWII. Torpedoed by a Japanese submarine, many were able to abandon ship. Then no one bothered to rescue them for five days.
Then the Navy decided to blame the Captain McVay for loss of the ship.
It's a harrowing tale. But I couldn't stop reading and finished it in one night. I certainly recommend it. The heroism of some of the officers, especially the ship's doctor, is monumental.
