Dèonitz and the wolf packs
An overview of the Battle of the Atlantic, with particular focus on Admiral Karl Donitz and the wolf pack tactics used by the German U-Boats. The book focuses primarily on the German side of the battle, and takes the form of a chronological narrative of the events of the Battle of the Atlantic. It takes an in-depth look at the formation of the wolf pack tactics, their success over the course of the War and the impact of the tactic on the allied naval forces. The author also takes a look at how the allies responded to the use of this tactic, how they eventually overcame it, and the subsequent collapse of the power of the German Navy. The book includes detailed maps of wolf pack attack convoys, as well as a bibliography for further reading on the subject.
