And the Baker's Boy Went to Sea

Owen Pasquerly is the son of a baker in Missoula, Montana. His father is sometimes cruel, and Owen runs away at age 15 to join the Navy in World War II. There he joins Nick and Enrique in service on the submarine Mako on the Pacific front. Based on several real stories from submariners, this novel could be a resource for units on World War II. Written by Mary Cummings, it also has a list of resources in the back.
