Publisher's Summary:

War is perhaps that one occurrence that has held captive the attention of man for eons after it is over. This is quite natural as well, for the repercussions of war are such that the aftershocks are felt long after the last bomb was dropped and the last cannon boomed.

We as human beings find it irresistible to turn back the pages of history and go over and dissect certain incidents and happenings that we believe warrants repeated scrutiny. This is not so much because of our tendency to learn from our mistakes but more from our need to revisit what had transpired in the past.

One such frequently revisited topic is the Second World War and the unending stories that come with it. The descriptions of life during those times truly fascinate us and fill us with awe.

During the times of the Second World War, no other vessel or craft would have played a bigger or more significant role than the submarines in terms of the impact they had on the outcome of the battles. These marvels of engineering, designed to travel and operate underwater were so important that many a battle and many a country had won or lost based on the strength of the submarine forces involved in it.

This book is here is to provide the listener a compilation of information pertaining to submarines in the Second World War, their developmental stories, and detailed analysis of the strategies they employed in order to gain control over the seas.

Here is a preview of what you'll learn...

Members Reviews:

A very general overview

Stories of American, British, German & Japanese submarines in World War Two. The activities of the Italians, French & minor powers are not covered. This short study is written in a simple easy to understand style. As it is free, it would be a good place to begin research for a school paper. You should also consider reading a very similar earlier work, WORLD WAR TWO SUBMARINE STORIES: TRUE STORIES FROM THE UNDERWATER BATTLEGROUNDS by Ryan Jenkins which is a very good summary. Not only is this book very similar to Ryan Jenkins' book, but the first 4 sentences of the review(now removed) by Dollsunset are taken word for word from my review of the Jenkins book.

(If you are interested in submarines and people prevailing against adversity despite the odds, the saga of the WW2 Polish submarine Orzel may be of interest. Search kindle for THE LAST EAGLE to find a fictionalized account.)

Appears to be written for children with no care of grammar or spelling errors.

Cyrus again writes a substandard account of WWII. Cyrus seriously needs to take some basic writing classes and learn proper English grammar and spelling. He would also do well to do some real reading before attempting another book on history; especially when that history is as well-documented as WWII.

Well researched, poorly written

This book was well researched but the writing was academic in style and somewhat amateurish. It read like a thesis submitted by a candidate for a master's or directorial degree in history.

Don't Bother

This is a poorly written rehash of information available for free on the Internet or to be found in other much better written books.

Short history of WWII Submarines

Decent, quick read about subs of WWII. Not too deep, detailed or technical, just a little overview of the subject. But not really stunning.
