SSN 14 is a dramatic and honest account of a year in the life of HMS Turbulent, the Royal Navy nuclear powered attack submarine commanded by Ryan Ramsey.

 

During 2011 Turbulent participated in the Libya intervention and passed through the Suez Canal to take up patrol in the Indian Ocean against the extraordinary political backdrop of the Arab Spring, in the period where both Colonel Gaddafi and Osama Bin Laden were killed and piracy and terrorism was rife.

 

During this period HMS Turbulent suffered a catastrophic failure of its cooling systems. The fight to survive tested Ryan’s command to its limits. Although the suffering was immense, the entire crew survived intact. Ryan also had to deal with constantly changing crew and transform them into a tight-knit, smoothly functioning team that could meet, and exceed, any challenge thrown at them.

 

This books documents his failures, as well as his successes and offers a unique insight into not only the realties of submarine life but also the essence of leadership in the most challenging of environments. No matter where your business battles are fought, this will help you be phenomenal at what you do.
