German Submarine Warfare in World War I Book Description

This compelling book explores Germany's disastrous campaign of unrestricted submarine warfare in WWI, which marked the onset of total war at sea. Sondhaus shows how the undersea campaign, intended as an antidote to Britain's more conventional blockade of German ports, ultimately brought the United States into the war, leading to Germany's defeat.
