Seawolf Park in Galveston, Texas, is a tribute to USS Seawolf (SS-197), a famous World War II submarine on eternal patrol. Before her loss in 1944, "the Wolf" was a star performer of the U.S. Submarine Force. After battling faulty torpedoes early in the war, skipper "Fearless Freddie" Warder began using a periscope camera to document his torpedo performance. Some of the photos his crew captured are among those most published from the war.

Relive Seawolf's battles through the words of many of her officers and enlisted men. Of special interest are the diary entries of Chief "Bud" McCoy, who was later lost aboard Seawolf on her 15th war patrol.

  EARLY REVIEWS OF WAR OF THE WOLF

"War of the Wolf is a magnificent read. As a veteran of the World War II boats, I can attest to how the true flavor of life during war patrols has been captured. Steve Moore has done an excellent job of blending detailed research with the first-hand stories he collected from the veterans of the famous submarine Seawolf.”––Charles H. Ver Valin, Lt. Cdr., USN (Ret.)

“The story of the Seawolf was a great read and was very informative of the full story and the unfortunate loss of this great boat and her fine crew. I was especially interested in the details of Captain Warder's tour on the Seawolf, which were new to me and for which I am grateful as he was my best man at my marriage in New London in May 1946.”––Kevin D. Harty, Cdr., USN (Ret.)
