War from the air-war from beneath the waves
For thousands of years warfare had been the business of armies of
foot and horse soldiers whilst the seas and oceans were contested
by the collision of navies propelled by wind, sail and oars. The
industrial age of the mid-nineteenth century brought in a new era
where technology would find its way into every aspect of the life
of mankind. Predictably that did not exclude the business of
killing. In the development of the aircraft and the submarine new,
hitherto impossible dimensions were attained and their influence
removed the limitations of warfare confined only to the surface of
our planet. This excellent and substantial book charts the
development and wartime proving of submarines and aircraft in the
most detailed way, up to and including, in some detail, their
operational use during the First World War. This account includes
many diagrams, illustrations and photographs which are sure to
captivate anyone interested in the Great War of the machines.
