Left for Dead: A Young Man's Search for Justice for the U.S.S. Indianapolis by Pete Nelson

Just after midnight on July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine. The ship sank in 14 minutes. More than 1,000 men were thrown into shark-infested waters. Later, the Navy court-martialed the ship’s captain.This is the true story of a young boy who spent six years researching the sinking of a U.S. Navy ship in World War II and exposed a major Navy cover-up.
