Shooting the War: The Memoir and Photographs of a U-Boat Officer in World War II
Год выпуска: 2003 Автор: Otto Giese Издательство: Страниц: 312 ISBN: 1591142989 Описание Book DescriptionThe war diary of former German naval officer Otto Giese recounts a seafaring career of extraordinary scope. It begins with the dawn of World War II, while the author is a junior officer on board the ocean liner SS Columbus, and continues through his confinement in a British prisoner-of-war camp after the war. This book showcases more than one hundred high-quality photographs taken by Giese throughout his wartime service to present a unique historical overview. Interspersed among tales of hardship and loss are colorful anecdotes that relay the camaraderie surrounding plots to escape detention at Angel Island, the unlikely processing of German seamen at Ellis Island, and Giese's experiences policing guerilla warfare in the Malayan jungle. He greets the incongruous movements of war with equanimity and offers an unwavering assessment of the dictates of duty. 104 photographs. Line drawing. 8 maps. Appendixes. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Paperback. 6 x 9 inches.
