“Following the career of a wet-nosed ensign at the outbreak of the war against Japan, this fast-paced novel is wrapped around historical fact and such enduring themes as leadership, ambition, and command. Evocative and engrossing, The Restless Wave is also quietly instructive.” —Caroline Alexander, author of The Endurance and The Bounty
“There can be no wiser or more vivid guide than the great global leader Admiral James Stavridis as he tells his exciting story of the US Navy in World War II. Stavridis shows us old Annapolis and Honolulu, the Pearl Harbor attack, the Battles of Midway and Guadalcanal, espionage and intelligence, love and violent death, even Ernest Hemingway. With a plot that never relents, The Restless Wave has it all. Historical fiction can tell us things that orthodox history cannot, and Stavridis is a master of the art. Read, learn from and enjoy this poignant and quick-paced novel.” —Michael Beschloss
“The Restless Wave is not only a stirring and gripping story of the sea, but also of love and war and leadership. Admiral Stavridis’s sweeping knowledge of history and life in the Navy shines on every page, imbuing this work with authenticity and power.” —David Grann
“A modern-day version of the Hornblower series. Jim Stavridis’ The Restless Wave grabs you from the first line and keeps you spellbound until the end. Captivating, pulse-pounding, and at times heartbreaking. You don’t have to enjoy naval history to love this story.” —Admiral Bill McRaven, US Navy (Retired)
“In the engaging tradition of Herman Wouk and Patrick O’Brian, Admiral James Stavridis has given us a fascinating novel of one young man’s—and one great nation’s—war at sea. The book is at once entertaining and illuminating, touching on the most fundamental of human themes with deftness and an appreciation of the immense achievements of the United States Navy in the deadliest of eras.” —Jon Meacham
