It includes detailed discussions of the technology and tactics used in submarine warfare, as well as an analysis of the effectiveness of these strategies.The book begins with an overview of the history of submarine warfare, including a discussion of early submarine designs and their limitations. It then goes on to explore the various offensive and defensive tactics used by submarines, including the use of torpedoes, mines, and other weapons.One of the key focuses of the book is the offensive torpedo system, which was a relatively new technology at the time of publication. Barnes provides a detailed analysis of the design and operation of torpedoes, as well as their effectiveness in combat.Throughout the book, Barnes draws on his own experience as a naval officer to provide practical insights into the challenges of submarine warfare. He also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers better understand the technology and tactics involved.Overall, Submarine Warfare, Offensive and Defensive is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of submarine warfare or the technology and tactics used in naval combat.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
