The U-Boat Wars

Ably written by former soldier and distinguished World War II historian Edwin P. Hoyt, The U-Boat Wars is a powerful and vivid rendition of deadly historical battles of the submarines (popularly referred to at the time as "U-Boats") that raged under the waters of the Atlantic during World War II. Anecdotes are drawn from German, British, and American naval archives richly and vividly present heart-pounding dramas of lethal conflict in a pivotal, undersea segment of a war between the Nazis and the Allies. Frightening in its pulse-pounding detail, The U-Boat Wars is a frank and riveting look at the role of the wartime submarine and men who sailed them into naval history.
