In this harrowing memoir, Herbert A. Werner—one of the few surviving German U-boat commanders—chronicles the savage reality of the Battle of the Atlantic. Spanning five submarines from 1941 to 1945, Werner takes readers from the early years of German triumph to the final, apocalyptic days of destruction, offering a rare personal account of a campaign where 28,000 U-boat crewmen were lost.
