Product description...
Battle of Midway, the Doolittle Raid, the “Gold Sub”
The submarine USS Trout (SS 202) completed eleven war patrols during World War II. Beginning by rescuing 20 tons of gold from the Philippines, Trout supported the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo, participated in the Battle of Midway, and damaged or destroyed enemy ships from giant aircraft carriers to equally small submarines. Trout performed special missions, landing special forces and materials of war in occupied Philippines as well as extracting escaping American P.O.W.s. RMCM (SS) Jeweldeen “Deen” Brown served on the Trout on the front line of naval war with Japan for eight war patrols. He experienced numerous depth charge attacks, surface gun actions, and stealth missions into enemy territory. While on board Brown participated in successful attacks against Japanese cargo ships, tankers, transport ships, gunboats, and submarines. Trout was credited with twelve vessels sunk for over 37,000 tons of shipping destroyed, though the actual tally may have been much higher. Brown was not on board for Trout’s final patrol, the one from which she did not return. His contribution to the admirable record of this war veteran submarine on her fighting patrols and adventurous and dangerous special missions was invaluable. Sadly, Trout was lost; she ended her career as she began it—fighting. This is his, and Trout’s, story.

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.
