The British Mjuseum Encyclopaedia of underwater and… von James P. Delgado
Heerlijk naslagwerk.
Interesting history of shipwrecks from antiquity through the modern era
My initial impression of this book was that it rather more "popular" in tone than I expected but besides the archaeology of these subs a good effort has been made to put these craft into their operational and tactical context so that one also winds up with a general history of the IJN's midget submarine effort.
