Iron Coffins: A Personal Account of the German U-boat Battles of World War II
Herbert A. Werner
The former German U-boat commander Herbert Werner navigates readers through the waters of World War II, recounting four years of the most significant and savage battles. By war's end, 28,000 out of 39,000 German sailors had disappeared beneath the waves.
The
Battle of the Atlantic was one of the most savage and strategically
significant campaigns of World War II: 28,000 out of 39,000 men in the
German U-boat force disappeared beneath the waves. Herbert A. Werner,
one of the few surviving German U-boat commanders, served on five
submarines from 1941 to 1945. From the Atlantic to the Mediterranean,
from the English Channel to the North Sea, he takes the reader with him
through the triumphant years of 1941 and 1942, when German U-boats
nearly strangled England, to the apocalyptic final years of destruction,
disillusionment, and defeat.
