About the Book

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.'
About the Author: Capt. Ulmer, USN SS (Ret.), began his military career by enlisting in the U.S. Navy in 1947 and in 1949 while serving as an electrical technician E-4 aboard the submarine USS Clamagore, he was transferred to the Naval Academy. When he asked his commanding officer why he was being sent to Annapolis, the skipper replied, "I don't think you're smart enough to make E-5 and I need the bunk space." Ulmer graduated in 1954 and in 1967 returned to command Clamagore, possibly the only officer to command a U.S. warship having served on it as an enlisted man. Living in Redmond, Washington with his wife Carol, Ulmer has written three other books; Count the Ways, Missing Person and The Roche Harbor Caper. He has also published several articles. Author D. M. Ulmer volunteers as a Seattle Museum of Flight Docent. Three of his short historical dramas have been produced there, the fourth, a musical tribute to an American Aviator hero of WWI is in rehearsal. He also volunteers his time with the Pastoral Care Department at Overlake Hospital Medical Center, Bellevue, Washington.
