A Scholastic book from the 60's about a submarine? And yet, I really enjoyed this book. With the exception of 2 characters whom I kept getting mixed up, the characters were well-developed, and the story was interesting. Who'd have thunk it?

Wow. Described as a young adult book, this adventure story read more like a Hammond Innes or Alistair MacLean tale. Good plot, enough suspense to keep the pages turning, and just the right amount of details to make it plausible. I'm looking for more works by this author.
