Book Description
Excerpt from When the U-Boats Came to America Herein I have aimed to present an authentic history of the operations of German submarines in the Western At lantic during the last six months of the World War, to gether with a comprehensive account of their effect upon the United States. Beyond that point, I have not essayed. What the U - boats did in European waters remains for some one else to tell. That I have been able to present the facts accurately and, I trust, completely, is due in no small measure to the splendid cobperation of the Historical Sec tion of the United States Navy Department. To the officers of the Historical Section and to Doctor Albert E. Mckinley, professor of American history at the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, who read the manuscript and made many valuable suggestions for its improvement, goes my sincere appreciation.
