ARABIAN STORM, a submarine SEAL thriller, was published today by Severn River Publishing and released as an e-book as well as in paperback, hardback and audiobook editions.

ARABIAN STORM takes its story right out of today's headlines, a tale about a mysterious terrorist with seemingly infinite resources, known to US intelligence only as Nabiin. But his followers call him the Prophet, and they will stop at nothing to follow his orders—orders that will pit the world powers against one another, and bring about his personal vision of the End of Times. 

For skipper Joe Glass and his crew aboard the submarine Toledo, thwarting the seemingly unstoppable terrorist plan becomes their new mission. 

Pitted in a race against time before countless civilians are killed, and assisted by a team of Navy SEALs, Joe and his crew must use their submarine, their wits, and their bravery to stop a global war...before it’s too late.

The book tells the amazing story of Navy officer Dixie Kiefer, a true World War II hero.  After having served in World War I, he was an instrumental player in several major battles in World War II.  He was the Executive Officer on the USS Yorktown at the battles of Coral Sea and Midway, in fact, he was the last man off Yorktown before she sank at Midway, and though he was seriously injured, he swam through shark-infested waters pushing a life raft filled with hurt sailors toward a rescue ship. He was also the skipper of the USS Ticonderoga when she came under brutal attack by Japanese kamikaze planes. And even though he had 65 serious wounds from shrapnel, he remained on the bridge for twelve hours, overseeing counter-attacks. He continued damage control with a badly broken right arm after being hit by suicide planes. He successfully steered his big carrier through a killer typhoon that took the lives of more than 800 men throughout the Allied fleet. Through it all, he performed coolly and heroically, leading his men through hell and back. 

On November 14, 1945, at about 12 noon his plane crashed on the northwest flank of Mt. Beacon in the Town of Fishkill and took the lives of all six Navy servicemen on board. Some of the remnants of the plane are still there today.  

 After three-plus years of research, David Rocco has completed this book with help from award-winning author Don Keith who has written extensively on World War II history as well as other subjects.

David Rocco is from Yorktown Heights, New York, and retired from the New York City Housing Department. Since his retirement, he has led civic and environmental efforts including the Walkway Over the Hudson Project in Poughkeepsie, The Mount Beacon Fire Tower Restoration Project, the Beacon Sloop Club’s Woody Guthrie vessel, and the Mount Beacon Eight organization.

See the news release for this event below:        

Noted Submarine Author to Conduct Book-signing Event at USS Drum Anniversary Celebration   

Award-winning and best-selling author Don Keith will take part in a book-signing event as part of the 75th anniversary celebration for the WWII submarine USS Drum on Saturday, November 19th, at 11 AM in Mobile, Alabama.  Keith will be signing copies of FINAL PATROL, his book detailing the stories of each of the seventeen World War II submarines around the country that are now open to the public as museum vessels.  That, of course, includes the Drum, a major feature at the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile.

Also signing books will be Tom Bowser, author of the book THE THREE LIVES OF THE USS DRUM: THE OLDEST U.S. SUBMARINE LEFT IN THE WORLD.  Bowser has been instrumental in helping restore the historic submarine.

The signing event will take place in the park’s Aircraft Pavilion immediately following the 11 AM anniversary ceremony.  Copies of the books will be available for purchase in The Ship’s Store souvenir shop.

Submarine Review, the official journal of the Naval Submarine League, has said, "Don Keith should rightly be regarded as the most prolific current historian of U.S. submarine history.”

John Sledge, writing in the Mobile Press Register, calls Keith’s submarine works, "Riveting. That’s the best word to describe the white-knuckle tension and drama that Don Keith delivers.  (He) writes in an engaging, you-are-there style calculated to bring the reader to the edge of his seat." 

Booklist says of FINAL PATROL, "Keith readably tells the stories of the 16 American (and one German) submarines preserved from World War II...Keith’s style (is) engaging." 

In a review in the U.S. Naval Institute’s Proceedings Magazine, Col. Gordon W. Keiser, U.S. Marine Corps (retired) wrote, "An award-winning author has compiled great summaries of U.S. subs and their crews. FINAL PATROL is a first-class work."

Keith has written extensively on World War II history as well as other subjects, both fiction and non-fiction, and has published more than thirty books.  His submarine thriller, FIRING POINT, is now in production as a major motion picture titled HUNTER KILLER, and will be in theaters in 2017, starring Gerard Butler and Gary Oldman.  His book THE ICE DIARIES, the story of the USS Nautilus and her historic voyage through the North Pole in 1958, was submitted for consideration for the Pulitzer Prize.

Keith has a strong Mobile connection.  He was once a co-owner of radio station 92.1 WZEW-FM.
