Are you a torpedo boat author? Nimble is committed to being the leading publisher of books about torpedo boats. Someone has to be the best! Cut through the clutter that you will encounter at other maritime publishers who cover the whole waterfront, and send me your proposal!
I am also looking for authors who are interested in bringing the story up to the present by writing about post-WWII small craft, torpedo boats and missile boats, which have played a significant role in modern surface naval combat, from the Styx that sank Israel’s Eilat in 1967 to the rivers of Vietnam to the launch that nearly sank USS Cole in 2000 to the Georgian missile boats that sortied against Russia in 2008.
Coming in 2010: PT BOATS BEHIND THE SCENES by Frank J. Andruss Sr. and PT BOATS IN WORLD WAR II by T. Garth Connelly (April 6) plus three more volumes of Joe Hind’s DEFINITIVE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE TORPEDO BOAT: Vol VIII (1944), Vol. IX (1945), and Vol. X (Appendices, Indexes, and Bonus Material). And check out the Nimble Books Torpedo Boat store, which includes a very useful box (bottom right) that brings up all the articles on Google that contain the words “torpedo boat.”
