The remarkably effective submarines (U-boats) of the German Navy
devastated the Allies during the first part of World War II and
very nearly brought British and American sea forces to their knees.
Military historian Hoyt here describes the years when U-boat "wolf
packs" under the command of Admiral Karl Doenitz terrorized the
Allies, sinking a third of Britain's battleships in 1939, and how
the Allies came back, developing anti-submarine weapons that sent
almost three-fourths of the U-boat crews to the bottom of the
ocean. The U-Boat Wars is a gripping account of the battles at sea
and the men-Doenitz, Churchill, sub-hunter Captain F. J. Walker,
and others-who decided the fate of the Atlantic.
