The U-boats constituted a serious threat to North American security and a major challenge to coastal and convoy defence. Hadley reveals the military and political impact on Canada of in-shore submarine warfare and vibrantly documents the successful German strategy of deploying daring long-range solo sorties to pin down the enemy close to home.
U- Boote gegen Kanada. Reviews
-
When we think of the battles of WWII, we likely don't think of anything near Canada. Yet, U-boats were very active at the gulf of the St Lawrence and surrounding area. This book shines light on this little talked about area of the war.

There is a lot of detail in this book. It certainly brings WWII closer to home. It also confirms many of the stories we may heard previously.
