Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book provides a wonderful protrayal of life onboard a WW II fleet submarine. The essential facts about a submarine's systems, equipment and operational environment are carried forth on top of the human experience of a submarine sailor. The author provides abundant technical detail without ever losing site of the human aspects of war. Through the use of abundant first person information from the veterans themselves this book comes alive and makes you feel as if you are part of the crew. For me this is WW II history at its best. While this book is a specific history of a single submarine it also provides a representative picture of life aboard a WW II submarine. Such unit and ship's histories are so much more readable than the battle monographs or big picture campaign histories that the publishers seem to prefer.
