Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture on Submarine Boats, and Their Application to Torpedo Operations In this lecture I have endeavored give a general history of the science of submarine navigation; giving detailed descriptions [when I have been able to obtain them] of special apparatus designed for the purpose, and a general idea of others where my researches have not been so successful. The greater portion of the information on this subject, which has found its way into print, is vague in the extreme; probably from the fact that it is a subject of very little interest to the general reader and only sought after by the curious, who, in most cases, would pre fer the accounts of marvelous results attained rather than the dry detail of the mechanical devices necessary to obtain them. As re gards the lack of other sources of information, both in times past and present; it may probably be ascribed either to illiteracy on the part of the inventors or a desire of keeping their knowledge to them selves.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Submarine Torpedo Boat: Its Characteristics and Modern Development To those familiar with this type of craft there is nothing remarkable in just the mere mileage covered by the Deutschland on this voyage, but the performance of this vessel is spectacular because it has succeeded in leaving a well blockaded port and traversed waters abounding in hostile craft undetected to the end. It is very difficult at this time to obtain any exact or reliable information as to the real dimensions of this vessel. It has been variously given out in widely conflicting statements.

Book excerpt: A very new weapons system, the lurking submarine with its self-propelled torpedoes fired from ambush changed the complexion of naval warfare forever. Both warships and merchant ships were at risk. In 1914 U-boats demonstrated their capability to sink major warships. During 1915 they turned their attention to merchant ships and began to sink or capture them in wholesale lots. U-boats nearly won the First World War for Germany by forcing Great Britain into peace negotiations in late 1917. U-boats sank or captured over 6,100 ships during WW I. In April 1917 England had only six weeks grain supply left, and apparently had no adequate way to deal with the unrestricted U-boat offensive that Germany unleashed in February of that year. Submarine Operational Effectiveness in the 20th Century deals with the first strategic submarine campaign and its outcome. It goes on to outline submarine development by major nations during the 1920s and 1930s, including submarine use during the Spanish Civil War. It ends in 1939, on the eve of World War Two, a war in which two massive submarine campaigns would be waged: the first by Nazi Germany against the Allies; and the second by the United States against the Empire of Japan.
