This is what Iain Ballantyne, author of The Deadly Trade and Hunter Killer thinks of the book: “The nuclear enterprise, and its success or failure, was fundamental to the UK, and also the USA, maintaining the edge in the Cold War under the sea. It is a devilishly complex subject, full of twists and turns, but Gareth Jones manage to tell the story in a lucid fashion. He unravels the complexities and provides deep understanding of the technological, political, industrial and key personalities. It is a ripping yarn that anyone seeking to truly comprehend the great submarine rivalry between the Soviet Union and NATO should read.”
