Samenvatting	Written by an acknowledged expert in the field of U-boat operations in World War 2 Wolf Packs: The Evolution of U -Boat Warfare is a compelling read.

Drawing upon original records from the U-Boat command, from Royal Navy reports and special intelligence from Bletchley Park, U-Boat Warfare: the Evolution of the Wolf Pack is a detailed study into the strategy and tactics of the U-boat fleet during World War 2. The book explores how and why the U-boat command planned the attacks, how the Wolf Packs were set up, how much Special Intelligence was contributed by Bletchley Park towards their defeat, what Britain did to combat the Wolf Packs and what actually happened on the seas. Supplemented by some 150 photographs, many of which are previously unpublished, along with maps, the narrative represents a remarkable exploration into one of the most critical campaigns of the war.
