The Pueblo Incident by Mitchell B Lerner

An account of the ""Pueblo"" incident. In January 1968, the USS Pueblo was attacked and captured by North Korean gunships on its maiden voyage. Diplomacy prevailed in the end, but not without great cost to the lives of the imprisoned crew and to a nation already mired in an unwinnable war in Vietnam.
