520    The Battle of the Atlantic (Churchill's term) was arguably
       the pivotal campaign of the Second World War – it 
       was certainly the longest starting with the sinking of RMS
       Athenia on 3 September 1939 and ending with the torpedoing
       of SS Avon Dale on 7 May 1945.This superbly researched 
       work covers all the major aspects of The Battle, balancing
       the initial advantages of Admiral Doenitz's U-Boat force, 
       the introduction of the convoy system, the role of the 
       opposing surface fleets and air forces, relative strengths
       and the all important technical developments. Intelligence
       particularly the Bletchley Park intercepts played an 
       increasingly important part in the final outcome.The 
       author concludes that May 1943 was the moment when the 
       Allies seized the initiative and, despite desperate German
       efforts, never lost their advantage.Using official records,
       personal accounts and a wealth of historical research, 
       this work gives the reader a splendidly concise yet broad 
       account of the course of the campaign, the men who fought 
       it on both sides and the critical moments and analysis of 
       the outcome. [Elib]
