Reviews

Providing a study of diplomatic and economic aspects of the U-boat operations against the United States as well as the tactical and strategic use of the U-boats, Koerver provides a volume that is extensively researched in primary and secondary sources, yet very readable. Numerous charts, graphs, and photographs enhance the volume., This is highly recommended work that should find its ways on the bookshelves of twentieth-century European and naval historians alike., Read this book not just for the description of war activities but for the unique perspectives of economic, political and diplomatic forces., Exhaustively researched and written by a German historian, the book focuses on the U-boat action against the United States in particular. Not only operations and tactics are covered, but all are placed in a larger geopolitical context., ...an absorbing work for those interested in both the Great War and early submarine-based strategic theory. Perhaps more important, it is an excellent illumination of a multiclass, militaristic, and diplomatically inept state trying to adapt to the realities of modern war and the exploitation of new technology--and catastrophically failing.
