тАЬIn the very highest rank of books about the last war. Submarines are thrilling beasts, and Edward Young tells of four yearsтАЩ adventures in them in a good stout book with excitement on every page. He writes beautifully, economically and with humor, and in the actions he commands he manages to put the reader at the voice-pipe and the periscope so that sometimes the tension is so great that one has to put the book down.тАЭтАФThe Sunday Times

тАЬNo disrespect to the big screen, but you canтАЩt beat a book for digging out the details.┬аAnd the details feel even better if the author is someone whoтАЩs been there.┬аSo, at least take the time to read┬аDas Boot, the autobiographical novel by Lothar-G├╝nther Buchheim.┬аAnd, for the British perspective, read┬аOne of Our Submarines┬аby Edward Young.тАЭтАФThe Mouldy Books
