Submarines were vital to the Allied victory in WWII, significantly reducing the capacity of both merchant and military ships. The book explores the development of submarines, highlighting their rise as a powerful weapon during WWI. Although the submarine fleet did not participate in the attack itself, it played a key role in combating the Japanese once the damaged surface fleet was repaired. Offering insights into life aboard submarines and their evolution into the nuclear age, this book is beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully designed, providing a distinctive perspective on submarines and the Pacific War.
