Overview

The Life And Times Of The USS Manatee And Its Always Ready And Sometimes Willing Crew. It came through World War II, the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, a fire, one of the biggest hurricanes on record, an oil spill, a collision, a run-in with a sitting president, a brush with the King, Elvis Presley, a stow-a-way chicken from Knots Berry Farm, a colossal-sized band-aide on its stern and a hydrogen bomb. Some believe the ship was the target that would have started the Vietnam War if two U.S. destroyers hadn't gotten in the way. It even had Hollywood calling. But wait... there's more.

Author Information

Joe Kraus spent his high school years in Salem Oregon and was voted most likely to succeed in his North Salem High School journalism class. That was all the encouragement he needed. His first national magazine article was published while he was still in high school. And after his military service and going to college, he ended up as a managing editor on several daily newspapers. Since then some 300 articles has followed, published in more than 60 different national periodicals. He has founded two national magazines, Autograph Collector Magazine and Child Stars Magazine, both now are no longer published. This gave more time to focus on his non-fiction books. Joe's first book, Alive in the Desert, published in 1978, was used in the popular TV series Air Wolf starring Ernest Borgnine. A revised edition of the book is expected to be released later this year. He also wrote a TV commercial for singer Kris Kristofferson and the script for the 37th Annual Young Artist Awards in Hollywood, California. Out shortly will be his new book, Desert Rats: They Came With A Pick, A Shovel And A Dream. He is also co-writing a book with Ron Stovall titled The Famous & Successful: Their Advice For All Of Us. Married to his wife, Karren for nearly 50 years, they have three grown children and six grandchildren.
