Why would Lt. John F Kennedy stop his Torpedo Boat (PT-109) in the midst of the hazardous Japanese shipping lanes known as the Tokyo Express, where it would be sunk by a collision with a Japanese destroyer? And why, despite the fact that General MacArthur wanted him court-martialed, was he instead later awarded a Medal for this action? Read “The Sinking of PT-109” to learn about this early mystery regarding John F. Kennedy when he was in the Navy during World War II, well before he became President.
Easy reading straightforward telling of an historical event. Not sure why it is called a novel as it doesn't appear to be much different from facts learned years ago. Good introduction to one event in life of a future president.
