From the Publisher
A new and up–to–date history of the Battle of the Atlantic—from all sides: the British, Germans, Americans, Italians, Canadians and Russians. World War II was only a few hours old when the Battle of the Atlantic—the longest campaign of the Second World War and the longest, most complex submarine war in history—began with the sinking of an armed merchant cruiser by the German submarine U30. This book charts the fascinating development of U–boat capacities and the techniques used by the Allies to try to arrest the power of this secretive force.
Part of the Battles and Campaigns series, edited by Hew Strachan, Chichele Professor of the History of War at the University of Oxford.
Marc Milner is Professor of Military History at the University of New Brunswick, Canada. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
