  'Underhand and damned un-English' was the view of submarines in Edwardian Britain. However, by the 1960s new nuclear powered submarines were seen by the Royal Navy as being the 'hallmark of a first class navy'. This book explores the changing attitudes to the submarine in Britain from World War One to the age of nuclear combat.
