City at Sea is about aircraft carriers, an endlessly fascinating subject. This is the story of Yogi Kaufman, at least as some of his friends, shipmates, classmates and professional colleagues saw him. He was a bit larger than life, but in the final analysis Yogi personified all American submarine skippers: of his generation, before him and after him. He had tenacity, he was technologically knowledgeable and he had vision of his mission. He was also a leader of a special breed of men. Not only free American Sailors, but trained submariners, who can do anything and who know the true meaning of the ten llS qualified and shipmate. That is the real privilege in being a submarine skipper.
