This is the definite account of the German submarine war against the Allies - the Battle of the Atlantic - an epic sea story and the most arduous and prolonged naval battle in all history. For nearly six years the German U-boat force attempted to force the British out of the war, sinking 2,800 Allied merchant ships, while in return the Allies sank 800 U-boats. On both sides, ten of thousands of sailors died.

Clay Blair, with his wife Joan, were the first historians to benefit from the release of official code-breaking and U-boat records in London and Washington. The result is the definitive history of Hitler's U-boat war against the Allies: hugely comprehensive, rich in detail, authoritative and objective, and crammed with vivid and dramatic accounts of action at sea.

This volume covers the first period of the Battle of the Atlantic when the German U-boats were in the ascendant. Volume 2 - 'The Hunted 1942 - 1945' is also available in paperback.
