The author, a passioonate believer in subvmarine warfare as a new strategic weapon, looks forward to the with some relish as a testing time when the full power of mines, submarines and torpedoes will be tested to destruction.

Contact seller4-star sellerOctavo, black boards (hardcover), red lettering, xiii + 214 pp. Fine in a Near-Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: On December 7, 1941, as the great battleships Arizona, Oklahoma, Utah, and several others lie paralyzed and burning in the aftermath of the Japanese attack of Pearl Harbor; a crack team of U. S. Nav…y salvage divers is hurriedly flown to the island of Oahu. The divers have been given a Herculean task: rescue the sailors and Marines trapped below, and resurrect the pride of the Pacific fleet. Now for the first time, the chief diver of the Pearl Harbor salvage operations, Cmdr. Edward C. Raymer, USN (Ret.), tells the whole story of the desperate attempts to save crew members caught inside their sinking ships. Descent into Darkness is the only book available that describes the raising and salvage operations of sunken battleships following the December 7th attack. Once Raymer and his crew of divers entered the interiors of the sunken shipwrecks -- attempting untested and potentially deadly diving techniques -- they experienced a world of total blackness, unable to see even the faceplates in their helmets. By memorizing the ships' blueprints and using their sense of touch, the divers groped their way hundreds of feet inside the sunken vessels to make repairs and salvage vital war material. The divers learned how to cope with such unseen dangers as falling objects, sharks, the eerie presence of floating human bodies, and the constant threat of Japanese attacks from above. Though many of these divers were killed or seriously injured during the wartime salvage operations, on the whole they had great success performing what seemed to be impossible jobs. Among their credits, Raymer's crew raised the sunken battleships West Virginia, Nevada, and California. After Pearl Harbor they moved on to other crucial salvage work off Guadalcanal and the sites of other great sea battles.

Condition: New. 2021 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1954). xxv + 506pp with 30 maps and diagrams.and numerous contemporary photos.Published Price £45 The first of eight volumes in the 18-volume official British History of the Second World War covering the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern theatres. After setting the political a…nd military scene, the authors open the action with Italyâs declaration of war and Franceâs collapse in June 1940. Britainâs painful neutralisation of the French fleet at Oran and Alexandria is followed by the first blows against the Italian empire in East Africa, and Italyâs attacks on Egypt and Greece. The Fleet Air Armâs triumphant attack on the Italian Fleet at Taranto, masterminded by Admiral Cunningham, is trumped by General Wavellâs even more successful Battle of Sidi Barrani in December, when vast numbers of Italians were captured for negligible British losses. The victory was followed up by Britainâs capture of Bardia and Tobruk, and the founding of the Long Range Desert Group - the germ of the SAS. The mopping-up of Genertal Grazianiâs forces in Cyrenaica, however, ominiously resulted in Germanyâs decision to rescue their ally with General Rommelâs Afrika Korps. However, the volume concludes optimistically with the successful campaign against Italy in Ethiopia, in which General Orde Wingateâs irregular Gideon Force plays a prominent part. The military narrative is accompanied by descriptions of diplomatic developments and technological innovations such as the arrival of the Hurricane fighter plane, the Matilda tank and radar. The text is accompanied by ten appendices, 30 maps and diagrams and 43 photographs.We have taken the opportunity with our 2021 editions of the OFFICIAL HISTORY OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR â" UNITED KINGDOM MILITARY series to redesign the covers and print on 140g silk paper.
