Act of War. This book is not only a great read but a history lesson. It should be required reading for any student of history. Jack Cheevers manages to take a huge amount of research and turn it into a coherent and interesting book. Well done Cheevers!

Plenty of details about the capture and subsequent imprisonment. I was a CT stationed in the Philippines when this occurred. I remember seeing documents proving that Pueblo was in international waters. Also heard mess decks intelligence that a CRITIC had been sent but not received. We didn't, of course, understand why no U. S. forces of any kind had not been sent to her assistance. This book answers that question. I think the book is well written and does a great job telling the story of Captain Bucher, the ship and the crew.

Act of War. The story of the Pueblo is either unknown or long forgotten by most Americans, but Cheevers provides a very detailed account of the events surrounding its outfitting, capture, treatment of its crew and painstakingly slow negations with the North Koreans. For the first time the entire story is told by Cheevers after extensive research, personal interviews and the freedom of information act. Act of War is a great read, full of detail,and research. The last "made for TV movie" about the pueblo was made in 1974 and certainly without the detail this new book brings to light. Perhaps it's time for a big budget Hollywood telling of Act of War.
