'A superb work of history' JAMES HOLLAND

'A thrilling account from a master of Second World War history' DAN SNOW

A landmark history of the U-Boat war told through the experiences and recollections of the U-Boat crews themselves.

Winston Churchill famously remarked that the threat of the German U-Boats was the only thing that had “really frightened” him during World War Two. The U-Boats certainly claimed a bitter harvest among Allied shipping: nearly 3,000 ships were sunk, for a total tonnage of over 14 million tonnes, nearly 70% of Allied shipping losses in all theatres of the war. With justification, then, they are an integral part of the traditional narrative of the Battle of the Atlantic; a story of technological brilliance, dramatic sinkings, life and death, and – of course – the sinister, unseen threat of the U-Boats themselves.

For Allied seamen during the war, the U-Boat was a hidden menace, a faceless killer lurking beneath the waves; and the urgent needs of survival afforded them little time or energy to consider the challenges and privations of their enemy. History, however, affords us that time and energy, and any pretence of comprehensiveness demands that we consider what life was like for the crews of those most claustrophobic vessels; packed into a steel hull, at the mercy of the enemy, of the elements – and of basic physics.

Germany’s U-Boat crews posted the highest per-capita losses of any combat arm during World War Two. Some 30,000 German submariners were killed – over 75% of the total number deployed – the vast majority of whom have no grave except the seabed. Using archival sources, unpublished diaries and existing memoir literature, this book will give the U-Boatmen back their voice, allowing their side of the narrative to be aired in a comprehensive manner for the first time.

With that testimony, Wolfpack takes the reader from the heady early days of the war, when U-Boat crews were buoyed with optimism about their cause, through to the challenges of meeting the Allied counterthreat, to the final horror of defeat, when their submarines were captured by the enemy or scuttled in ignominy. Using the U-Boatmen’s own voices to punctuate an engaging narrative, it tells their story; of courage, certainly, but also of fear, privation and – ultimately – failure.

I have everything on my desk plugged into it. Sometimes I have to push hard to get the plug in, but the surge protection makes it worth it.

Perfect for the bathroom

I recently installed the these floating shelves with Wire Storage Basket, and I'm genuinely impressed with their blend of style and practicality. The shelves were easy to mount, and the included hardware felt sturdy, ensuring they're securely in place. Right off the bat, I noticed the quality of the materials; the wood has a nice finish, and the wire basket is well-constructed, promising durability. Functionality is where these shelves truly shine. The wire basket is perfect for storing smaller items, keeping them organized and within easy reach, while the shelf space is great for displaying decorative pieces. They've helped me declutter my space and add a touch of rustic charm at the same time. Aesthetically, these shelves look great in my bathroom. Overall, these floating shelves have exceeded my expectations, offering a stylish and functional storage solution that's built to last.

Looks great and holds firm.
Color: Dark Brown, Size: 15.7 inch
Looks great in my bathroom. Great functionality and good quality shelving and frame. I wouldn't stack an Encyclopedia Britanica on it, but it will solidly hold bathroom items with no problem. I added a couple of motion-activated rechargeable light on each side of this unit and it really looks great while serving a very practical purpose.
