8vo., First Edition, with 33 plates on 24, 4 diagrams in the text and 6 large folding maps (5 coloured in outline), title faintly spotted; original cloth, gilt back, boards lightly age-marked else a remarkably bright, clean copy. Effectively the official history of the German submarine campaign in the Great War.By early 1915 the U-boats' hesitant beginnings had become a commitment to a total blockade of the UK. This indispensable work includes a complete history of the campaign, describing in detail the nature and extent of the threat. For some time the Admiralty failed to appreciate fully the magnitude of the menace and it was not until 1917 that the introduction of a convoy system began to redress the balance. This account is one of very few to cover both overall strategy and individual boat tactics, and the photographs are both valuable and not easily available elsewhere. Appendices include a review the success of the convoy system, a history of German submarine design between 1904 and 1914, a record of German submarine construction and losses, German 'aces', merchant ship losses, and (almost uniquely) details of Austro-Hungarian and Turkish submarines.There are several modern re-issues, but none to anything like these production standards. VERY SCARCE, ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION. Enser p.432
