More Sub Tales

By: Charles Hood, Frank Hood

Narrated by: Joseph Robert Courtemanche

The authors of the Poopie Suits & Cowboy Boots series are pleased to announce the publication of More Sub Tales, the sequel to the immensely popular Sub Tales: Stories that Seldom Surface. More Sub Tales is the second of four books in our Sub Tales series, a collection of true stories about American submarines. Our other books are Poopie Suits & Cowboy Boots, The Silent Service Remembers (Vols. 1, 2, and 3), Sub Tales 3, and Sub Tales 4. All eight titles contain riveting accounts of the triumphs and tribulations of the US Submarine Force.

Each book features plenty of stories and personal recollections from the men who served. More Sub Tales joins the series with 36 new stories about the Silent Service, spanning more than a century of history from the experimental submarines conceived by Simon Lake in the late nineteenth century to the christening of the USS Hawaii (SSN-776) in 2006. Together these stories weave a compelling and instructive narrative of American submarines and the men who rode them.

More Sub Tales will entertain and inform the reader about key moments and milestones in the evolution of submarines. Learn about the many ordeals, sacrifices, and brave acts that represent the proud legacy of this underappreciated segment of our Armed Forces. Each story has been carefully vetted by more than two dozen veteran submariners for accuracy, and in most chapters, additional authenticity has been gained by interviewing actual participants. Care has been taken to omit what needs to remain classified, but in no way does such safeguarding get in the way of captivating storytelling.

The book has been written in clear language, and with explanations where relevant, to appeal to a wide-ranging audience beyond only those familiar with submarine service. The content is regularly updated; the most recent update was completed in October 2023.

Several chapters in More Sub Tales have appeared as feature stories in the USSVI quarterly publication, "American Submariner."
