Learn moreThe remarkable true story of Dudley "Mush" Morton, the most admired—and feared—submarine commander of World War II
Mush Morton was a warrior without peer. At the helm of the USS Wahoo he completely changed the way the submarines fought in the Pacific War. He would relentlessly attack the Japanese at every opportunity, burning through his supply of torpedoes in record time on every patrol. Over the course of only nine months and five patrols, Morton racked up an astounding list of achievements, including being the first American skipper to wipe out an entire enemy convoy single-handedly.
Here, for the first time, is the life and legend of a heroic submarine commander who fought the war on his own terms, and changed the course of the undersea war in the Pacific.
Don Keith is a native Alabamian and attended the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, where he received his degree in broadcast and film with a double major in literature. He has won numerous awards from the Associated Press and United Press International for news writing and reporting. He is also the only person to be named Billboard magazine "Radio Personality of the Year" in two formats, country and contemporary. Keith was a broadcast personality for over twenty years and also owned his own consultancy, co-owned a Mobile, Alabama, radio station, and hosted and produced several nationally syndicated radio shows. His first novel, The Forever Season was published in fall 1995 to commercial and critical success. It won the Alabama Library Association's "Fiction of the Year" award in 1997. His second novel, Wizard of the Wind, was based on Keith's years in radio. Keith next released a series of young adult/men's adventure novels cowritten with Kent Wright set in stock car racing, titled the Rolling Thunder Stock Car Racing series. Keith has also published several nonfiction historical works about World War II submarine history and coauthored The Ice Diaries with Captain William Anderson, the second skipper of USS Nautilus, the world's first nuclear submarine. Mr. Keith lives with his wife, Charlene, in Indian Springs Village, Alabama.
