Inhalt:
"Iron coffins," "grey wolves," and "steel sharks" - cast in images such as these, submarines are icons of Germany's maritime tradition. In books and films, submarines have been used to promote political goals and to justify and explain an intriguing and sometimes ambiguous past. A fascinating look at nearly one hundred years of propaganda and literature, Count Not the Dead explores the cult and culture surrounding one of the most mythologized weapons of war.
