Despite being heavily outnumbered by the navies of Great Britain and the United States; the German navy proved to be a serious adversary. Its major warships posed a constant threat to the Allied shipping lanes; and its U-boats in the North Atlantic threatened the very liberation of Europe. This important work explains why Hitler's navy was such a potent force. An indispensable guide to the ships; organization; command and rank structure; and leaders of the Kriegsmarine; the book's detailed text studies the navy from World War I to the collapse of the U-boat offensive and the demise of the Third Reich. More than 350 photos; many never before published; along with maps and diagrams; story updates and expands the author's 1979 title; The German Navy in World War Two; for a new generation of readers.
