NORMAN FRIEDMAN is arguably America's most prominent naval analyst, and the author of more than thirty books covering a range of naval subjects, from warship histories to contemporary defence issues. His most recent titles in a series of successful works for Seaforth are _British Battleships of the Victorian Era_ and the first part of his history of British Submarines, subtitled 'in two World Wars'.
British Submarines in the Cold War Era by Norman Friedman is a
remarkable achievement.... This book is a must-read for all
professionals, designers and scholars of modern submarines. Once
again it should be recommended reading for all Australian submarine
design courses. --Australian Naval Institute
This offering, authored by Norman Friedman, provides the reader
with an informative, and rounded look at the submarines of the
Royal Navy post-WWII. The benefits learned from fighting the U-Boat
force is well explained, and the advances in Royal Navy submarines,
that help protect them from the methods used to seek out and
destroy U-Boats. For anybody interested in submarines, as a machine
of war this book is a must have, as the UK was one of the leading
lights in the development and use of submarines as weapons of war,
and their collaboration with the U.S. Navy has paid huge dividends
for both countries. --Model Shipwrights
