Thank you, Sailor Steve :) EDIT: I've bought the Kindle Edition. My kindle was registered with my mother country, Italy, and this particular book was not available in digital format. So I had to change and register mi Kindle device with USA and know I can access the full Amazon.com catalogue of ebook. |
Hello sailors,
I installed TMO for the first time and it's truly great. Now I would like to read some more about the submarine services of WW2. Basically I am looking for 2 kind of books. 1st I would like a general encyclopedia with all the different types, not just American and German but if possible also, British, Dutch, Australian, Italian, Japanese and much more. 2nd I would like a book that offers insight about daily life in the subservice, missions, diaries etc. Maybe something written by a commander after the war? Could you give me some nice titles about this? Cheers, Tromp |

http://www.amazon.com/Submarines-Wor.../dp/1854095323 If you do buy it through Amazon, be sure to use the 'Quick Links' tab at the upper right of this page to get there. That way Subsim will get a cut, at no extra cost to you. As for the second, there are many such books. Unfortunately I don't have any of them, but others do, and I'm sure will get your fill before they're done. :sunny: |

My copy of Norman Friedman's Fighting The Great War At Sea came in today. Got a brand new copy from a seller on Amazon for $38 (the book retails for $85!). I've only flipped through it, but it looks...intimidating. It's actually 416 pages (not the 320 that Amazon and the USNI are insisting), the pages are crammed with text, and it doesn't seem to have anywhere near as many photos and diagrams as the other Friedman titles I've read.
Well, here goes nothing. I'll be happy if it's at least more coherent than British Cruisers of the Victorian Era. |
