Business in Great Waters by John Terraine

Business in Great Waters by John Terraine

Written by a military historian, this book aims to draw together the threads of the two wars of 1914-18 and 1939-45 against Germany's submarines (Untersee Boote) noting their affinities and their contrasts. It tries to set each U-boat campaign against the war situation that gave birth to it.
