ABOUT
The story of Commander Young, his patrols during the war, his escape from a sunken submarine, and his submarine warfare against Japan.
Submarines are thrilling beasts, and Edward Young tells of four years' adventures in them during WW2 in this book. A most comprehensive and intelligible picture of the submariner's life. It is not the highlights which stand out as much as the often-nostalgic picture of a dangerous, uncomfortable and yet exhilarating daily life.
Illustrated with monochrome images and maps.
Cutaway drawings on end papers.
