War Under Waves: A History of Submarines

War Under the Waves, first published in 1962, is a non-technical overview of the history of the military submarine. Beginning with the Turtle of the American Revolutionary War, the Hunley of the Civil War, and continuing on to famous World War One and Two submarines (such as the USS Growler and USS Harder), War Under the Waves provides a look at the crews and their subs as they engaged the enemy and helped make the submarine one of the essential tools of naval warfare.
