Dang, that's a long handle...

First, welcome Zoomie! And maybe even, welcome home too...

Cold War books was your question... my latest favorite is RED STORM RISING, by: Tom Clancy.

It has a Zoomie hero in it, for one thing :-)

What about the Dale Brown books? Start with Flight of the Old Dog and go from there.

Thumbs up Submarines in the cold war

Go for this one, you won't be able to put it down: Sontag and Drew BLIND MAN'S BLUFF: The Untold Story of American Submarine Espionage. After 6 years of research veteran investigative journalist Sherry Sontag and New York Times reporter Chris Drew reveal stories of American tapping of Soviet communications cables in the Barents Sea, the true story of the legendary Hughes Glomar Explorer, a CIA-built excavation vessel, new evidence about the loss of USS Scorpian and much more. Stretching from the years following WWII to present day spy operations of the Clinton Administration. Photos, 352 pages. F-/F- $20
