This concluding volume of Clay Blair's unique and definitive history of the German submarine war against the Allies cover the years 1942 to 1945 when the fortunes of the German Navy were completely reversed and it suffered a prolonged and devastating defeat.
Drawing upon sources never used before, in a hugely comprehensive and richly detailed account, Clay Blair continues the dramatic and authoritative story of the German U-boat campaign and its ultimate destruction by the many counter-measures devised by the Allies to hunt down and destroy the German submarines, including the breaking of the German codes.
But this is also a history of war crammed with vivid and dramatic episodes of action at sea, actions only too real to the sailors who endured the Battle of the Atlantic with great courage and endurance.
The first volume in this history of Hitler's U-boat war - 'The Hunters 1939 - 1942' is also available in paperback.
