A history of HM Submarine losses 1904-1971. The first such disaster was in 1904 when the A1 was lost after a collision with the liner Berwick Castle. The last one dealt with is the loss of the Artemis which sank in 1971. Between the two, 171 submarines were lost - the largest toll inevitably being during WWII.

The author, a former US Navy Chief Warrant Officer, has produced a spellbinding account of how the Battleship, USS Nevada, managed to get underway during the Japanese attack. She was the only US Capital Ship to do this. Of USS Nevada's crew of nearly 1500, fifty officers and men were killed in action during the Pearl Harbor raid. Written from the perspective of a senior enlisted man who was there, this is one of very few personal studies of the events on on that fateful Sunday morning, December 7th, 1941.

The casualties in the Battle of the Atlantic were probably higher than in any other theatre of operations during World War Two. Between 1939 and 1945 almost 30,000 merchant sailors lost their lives. An equal number of American, Canadian, and British sailors and airmen also lost their lives protecting the merchant ships and hunting the German U-boats and surface ships that preyed on the Allied North Atlantic convoys. Of the 1,099 U-boats that operated in the north Atlantic during these years, only 37 survived the war.

The Battle of Midway widely regarded as the most important one of the Pacific Campaign of World War II took place from June 4 to 7, 1942, six months after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. The Japanese plan was to lure America's carriers into a trap and sink them. They also intended to occupy Midway Atoll to extend their defensive perimeter. The US Navy decisively defeated the attack, the heavy losses permanently weakening the Imperial japanese Navy. The authors were active participants in the battle thus this account is from the Japanese perspective.

Admiral Galantin tells the story of the amazing evolution of the submarine, from the civil war era to today's nuclear boats. From 1920, his first year at Annapolis, until 1970 when he retired, the author saw the US Navy evolve from a floating bureaucracy, to a force capable of projecting of US power on the high seas. The story of Galantin’s forty one year, adventure filled career is told in a readable and exciting style. He recounts the birth of Admiral Rickover's nuclear navy with the sub-polar voyage of USS Nautilus, the tragic loss of the Thresher, and the advent of the huge Ballistic Missile subs of the Los Angeles Class.
