The hunters and the hunted on the high seas of war
This interesting book-containing two book length accounts-views the
same conflict-the U-Boat War during the First World War in the
North Atlantic, North Sea and English Channel-from both sides. The
first, The U-Boat Hunters was written by a professional journalist
reporting for Colliers Magazine as he accompanied the United States
destroyer force in the final year of the war. The second account,
The Diary of a U-Boat Commander, is an interesting insight into the
world of a Kreigsmarine officer on active service. It is a
traumatic story of battle and mental and physical suffering
illuminated by periods of tragic romance making it a classic naval
memoir of the German Navy at war in the early 20th century.
The man with the gold-headed cane had been headed for the cottage,
but espying the boy at the water's edge, he changed his course. He
crept to within a few paces of the lad before he hailed: "Halloo,
little boy! I'll bet I know who your papa is." The boy looked
casually around. Seeing that it was a stranger, he faced about and
stood respectfully erect.
