  Submarine and Anti-Submarine. This book contains a collection of tales of the submarine campaign, based on authentic narratives hitherto unpublished. It also traces the evolution of the undersea boat from its earliest days, demolishing the German claim that it is the product of German ingenuity and skill. Among other introductory chapters is one on the submarine war as an illustration of the contrast between the national spirit of England and that of Germany. The Book of the Happy Warrior.
