PUEBLO & BUCHER by COMMANDER LLOYD M BUCHER U.S.N.
This was written by the Captain of the USS Pueblo an intelligence ship captured by North Korea in 1968. It can be divided into two halves, the first is about the refitting of the Pueblo for it's intelligence gathering missions, Captain Bucher's personal history and the capture of the ship. The second half is about the captivity of the crew and their return nearly a year later to the United States. The captivity is quite brutal so be aware.
