Canadian Submarine Service in Review Hardcover - 2001

by J. David Perkins; David Perkins


From the publisher

This is the story of Canada's submarines from the viewpoint of a man who spent over sixteen years serving in British and Canadian submarines. It describes how these submarines were acquired, what type they were, how they were used, and depicts the men who sailed in them. Told in a fast-paced, entertaining style, with an unsurpassed selection of photographs of Canadian submarines from the beginning to the present.There are extensive technical descriptions in plain language on the ship types, full operational specifications and histories including commanders and officers, and a wealth of photographs. Students of naval history and submariners themselves will find it a valuable reference. Submarine buffs will be delighted with the absorbing details on these fascinating weapons of war.

Description:
St Catharines, Ontario: Vanwell, 2000. 208 pp, 10 1/4" H. Profusely illustrated in b&w with photographs, diagrams. "The Canadian Navy acquired its first submarines on the day the First World War was declared. As well, Canadian officers served in all theatres of war aboard British submarines, continuing into the Second World War. During WWII and the following Cold War Canada owned no submarines, but 'rented' submarine services from Britain and the US with which to train its large, modern anti-submarine fleet. Finally, during the 1960s the decision was made to acquire submarines for the RCN, and Canada now has a very dedicated submarine service of its own. Perkins, himself a submariner, ably chronicles that evolution in these pages." Bump to bottom corner of the text block, bump to the bottom corner of both boards. Dust jacket has light wrinkling at the top/bottom of the spine and the flap-folds, minor rubbing.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good-/Very Good.
