Book description
Already acclaimed on publication in the United States, the U-Boat war
is here chronicled with authority, fidelity, objectivity, and
extraordinary detail. He also writes vivid and dramatic scenes of naval
actions with startling new revelations and conclusions about all aspects
of the Battle of the Atlantic. Clay Blair is the author of two dozen
books that have created a permanent place in the telling of our history.
These include Silent Victory: The U. S. Submarine War Against Japan;
biographies of Admiral H. G. Rickover; Generals Douglas MacArthur,
Matthew B. Ridgeway, and Omar N. Bradley; and John F. Kennedy; and, most
recently, The Forgotten War, about Korea. He died in 1998.
