"This can be a decent enough addition to one's library, although it is ultimately limited by it's small size. The strength of the book are the many photos, including a good number I hadn't seen before (though many with sparse captions). The color artwork was well-done and helped to illustrate the widely varied missions undertaken by submarines during the war. The text is marred by one glaring error that could be quite misleading if this book was someone's first exposure to the subject. When describing the attack procedures of a typical submarine, the author mentions that the captain "would make periodic checks of the target's range and speed using his periscope-mounted ST radar". Though not necessarily false, this is rather misleading as the ST radar set was only installed on subs during the final months of the war. This error is repeated in one of the "commentaries" to the color plates. My rating of three stars instead of five is due solely to the gravity of this one mistake. This may seem harsh, but a 64 page book doesn't have room enough for such errors." Unidentified reader
