Description
Torpedoes Away! tells the story of US Navy submarine operations during the first 18 months of World War Two. Through extensive interviews with veteran submariners and meticulous research, author Maxwell Hawkins brings to life the tense and dangerous missions of submarines USS Trout, Sea Raven, Pollack, Skipjack, Cuttlefish, and others.
From the mechanical workings of submarines to the history of submersibles dating back to the 17th Century, Hawkins provides a comprehensive study of underwater warfare. His in-depth look at the experiences of those who served on these vessels offers a unique perspective on this pivotal period in military history.
