Overview

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.
