I read a first hand account of it by a crew member around 40 years ago in a paperback, can't remember the title, also an account of the submarine Halibuts search for the K-129.

I just recieved the video produced by PBS of the recovery also, some more books are red star rogue, blind mans bluff, the silent war by John P Craven and other sources.

In the book about project Azorian is a chapter about what seems to be the actual cause of the 129's sinking, not theory's of what it was doing and why it was where they found it but what actually sank it.

And I loves me some Chrichton, finding a new one was like it was my birthday a month early.

I'm a voracious reader, it'll take two days to get through "Dragons Teeth", cause of the Super Bowl you know....
