Acerca de esta escucha

Sweeping from the frigid waters of the North Atlantic to the steaming South Pacific, this riveting chronicle of submarine warfare is the first to cover all the major submarine campaigns of the war, describing, in detail, the operations of the British, American, Japanese, Italian, and German submarine and anti-submarine forces.

Beginning with a vivid re-creation of the sinking of the passenger liner Athenia by a German U-boat in September 1939, critically acclaimed military historian Peter Padfield's compelling narrative casts an unflinching eye on the devastating consequences of maritime warfare. The often harrowing encounters unfold with urgency and power, balanced by his keen sense of objectivity and perspective.

Exploring the full spectrum of the submarine and anti-submarine warfare experience, this brilliantly detailed account pulls no punches. Facts and figures that stagger the imagination are revealed in starkly human terms, and disturbing questions abound. Padfield addresses the controversial issues raised with candor and insight, and the result is not only an impressive achievement but a milestone work in the history of the 20th century.

This book lays out the brutal submarine war, occurring from the beginning y in the end of WW2, like a thriller. Padfield’s knowledge about the subject and how he lays it out keeps the reader continually engaged but not ever confused. It’s completely streamlined. This topic has been covered before of course but Padfeld is able to provide knowledge that the readers may not have known before and without bias. The U boat war was unbelievably brutal is is often overlooked. The narration is exceptional. The best of the best on this subject and for any military history buff.

I listened to this because I so enjoyed " The War Below". I find submarine warfare interesting and I"m a history buff.
This book did not disappoint by any measure. Interesting commentary on technological evolution, excellent personal stories and first hand accounts.

It starts a bit slow, but the other 90% of the book was well worth it.

Very good in every respect

This is a wonderful over view of the WW2 submarine forces. The depth of information in the different countries sub fleets was surprising. It should be the first book read on the WW2 war under the seas.

Book covered the submarine forces of all major belligerents, in all theaters, in depth. However, the omission of seminal events — such as Convoy PQ-17 — the incomplete handling of others — such as the story of the Sailfish and the Sculpin — and outright errors of fact (e.g. misnaming the atomic bombs “Thin Boy” and “Fat Boy”) marred the story, and thereby called other details into question.

A good effort marred by unforced errors
