Praise for Patrick K. O'Donnell and First SEALs "A great American writer" --Clive Cussler , New York Times bestselling author "Well researched and very well told, First SEALs is a rousing tale of wartime derring-do that puts the Navy's current special warfare units in firm historical perspective--an absolute must-read." --Stephen Harding , bestselling author of The Last Battle "Patrick O'Donnell is already one of America's foremost combat historians. This fascinating book now places him in the front rank of special operations historians. Based on many years of painstaking archival research and hundreds of interviews, First SEALs takes us deep into World War II naval special warfare, both European and Pacific. Beautifully written, original, and compelling from first page to last. I highly recommend this book." --John C. McManus , author of The Dead and Those About to Die "A fantastic story of the first SEALs--brilliantly told! A must read." --Alex Kershaw , bestselling author of The Liberator "One of our finest military historians, Patrick O'Donnell has crafted a terrific, unforgettable narrative of the forerunners of today's amazing Navy SEALs--that puts the reader right in the watery battlefield with them." --Flint Whitlock , Editor, WWII Quarterly magazine Library Journal, 11/1/14 "[A] well-written chronicle of the SEAL's World War I precursor, the Maritime Unit...Through a combination of detective work in the National Archives and interviews with surviving members, O'Donnell successfully details the group's past, which provided the foundation upon which the modern SEALs were founded...This engrossing account of previously unknown World War II history will be of interest to military aficionados of all levels." Tampa Bay Times , 11/5/14 "Delves into the little-known World War II origins of the extraordinary military unit that is much in the news today." Sacramento Bee , 11/11/14 "The Navy's Sea, Air and Land teams (SEAL) are rightfully legendary, but until now their origin has been obscured by time. In this behind-the-scenes history, readers learn how a World War II group known as the Maritime Unit became the template for today's elite special force." Internet Review of Books, 12/28/14 "Patrick O'Donnell does a solid job of bringing the mostly forgotten founders of the OSS's Maritime Unit (MU) back to life...Riveting descriptions of daring exploits...This book would make a hell of a war movie." Military Review , May/June issue "Over the past decade, Patrick O'Donnell has firmly established himself as one of the world's preeminent military historians...He is incredibly gifted in transforming his exhaustive research into a highly readable narrative.", Advance Praise for First SEALs Well researched and very well told, First SEALs is a rousing tale of wartime derring-do that puts the Navy's current special warfare units in firm historical perspective--an absolute must-read."--Stephen Harding, bestselling author of The Last Battle Patrick O'Donnell is already one of America's foremost combat historians.

McManus, author of The Dead and Those About to Die A fantastic story of the first SEALs--brilliantly told! A must read."--Alex Kershaw, bestselling author of The Liberator "In wartime, there has always been a fine line between courageous and crazy, bravery and bravado. During World War II, America produced quite a few warriors who fit into both camps, but perhaps none matched all of the criteria as much as did those who fought the war underwater or in small, vulnerable rubber boats. One of our finest military historians, Patrick O'Donnell has crafted a terrific, unforgettable narrative of those warriors--the forerunners of today's amazing Navy SEALs--that puts the reader right in the watery battlefield with them."--Flint Whitlock, Editor, WWII Quarterly magazine, Library Journal, 11/1/14 "[A] well-written chronicle of the SEAL's World War I precursor, the Maritime Unit...Through a combination of detective work in the National Archives and interviews with surviving members, O'Donnell successfully details the group's past, which provided the foundation upon which the modern SEALs were founded...This engrossing account of previously unknown World War II history will be of interest to military aficionados of all levels."

Synopsis
Beginning in the summer of 1942, an extraordinary group of men--among them a dentist, a Hollywood movie star, an archaeologist, California surfers, and even former enemies of the Allies--united to form an exceptional unit that would forge the capabilities of the Navy's Sea, Air, and Land (SEAL) Teams. Known as the Maritime Unit, it comprised America's first swimmer-commandos, an elite breed of warrior-spies who were decades ahead of their time when they created the tactics,technology, and philosophy that inspire today's Navy SEALs. The pioneering men of the Maritime Unit conducted some of the most daring operations behind enemy lines and even survived one of the Third Reich's infamous concentration camps. But after the war, their astonishing record of activity and achievement was classified, lost, and largely forgotten...until now. In First SEALs , Patrick K.
