During the Second World War, the German navy waged an intensive naval war, mainly with submarines, to disrupt the Allies' sea routes in the Atlantic. Military historian Jörg Hillmann analyses their objectives and describes the brutal warfare up to the Allied landings in Normandy. His profound analysis debunks the ideal image of a "clean navy". The "Wars of the Modern Age" series, published by the Bundeswehr Centre for Military History and Social Sciences, makes the latest research findings accessible to a wide audience. The most important military crises and armed conflicts of the past centuries are vividly presented and analysed both in terms of the course of the conflicts and in relation to political and cultural contexts.
