Secrets of Nazi U-Boat Bases offers a new look at the Battle of the Atlantic; the most important military campaign of World War II. While occupying France, Hitler built along the French Atlantic Coast what he thought was the secret to securing victory-five huge underwater bases that protected and rearmed his returning U-Boat fleet after attacking British supply ships.
Now, equipped with previously unknown German national archive documents, historians Luc and Marc Braueur reveal the secrets of these super-structures for the very first time in 75 years. Meanwhile, they uncover how the Allies utilized spying and decryption to organize radically different anti-submarine counter-measures which would defeat Hitler’s navy and eventually win the war.
