{"product_id":"9781526759023","title":"U-Boats at War in 100 Objects, 1939-1945","description":"Gordon Williamson, using a carefully selected range of both wartime images and color images of surviving U-boat memorabilia from private collections, describes one hundred iconic elements of the U-boat service and its campaigns. The array of objects includes important individuals and the major U-boat types, through to the uniforms and insignias the men wore. The weapons, equipment and technology used are explored, as are the conditions in which the U-boat crews served, from cooking facilities and general hygiene down to the crude toilet facilities.  Importantly, the enemy that they faced is also covered, examining the ship-borne and airborne anti-submarine weaponry used against the U-boats. The U-boats began the war, though few in number, more than a match for the Allies and created carnage amongst merchant shipping as well as sinking several major warships.","brand":"Naval Institute Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59660726108492,"sku":"9781526759023","price":24.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/4163\/2076\/files\/9781526759023-a6542a890afe4ae1_front.webp?v=1793378672","url":"https:\/\/foxandfable.com\/products\/9781526759023","provider":"Fox \u0026 Fable","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
