In this book Tom Swift Jr. is working on a jetmarine when some weird attacts on boats occur. Tom uses his new jetmarine to capture the culprits of the attacks. The jetmarine is an atomic powered craft that can go deeper under water than most submarines. The jetmarine uses Tasmonite, a plastic stronger than metal, instead of glass for its windows.

I don't recall all the details of this particular novel.

What I do remember,though,was the sheer pleasure I got from reading these books in the late 1960s.

Always a fascinating invention in each story, and the illustrations were beautiful.

Another great series running at about the same time: Rick Brant Science Adventures by John Blaine.

Highly recommended.

I'm working on building up this collection. I want to pass these down to my grandkids. I remember these books from when I was a kid, they are simple reading pleasure.

Can't think of anything negative to say about these books from my childhood, they bring back very good memories.

The copy I got was in very good condition.
