Hitler's U-Boat War

Available for over a year

In this episode, we chart the sweeping story of Hitler’s U-boat war - from its early triumphs in the Atlantic to the relentless Allied fightback that ultimately sealed its fate. Along the way, we step inside a German submarine to explore the cramped routines, ever-present dangers and harsh realities faced by the men who lived and fought beneath the waves. For this, we're joined by Roger Moorhouse, historian of modern German history and author of 'Wolfpack: Inside Hitler's U-Boat War'. Produced and edited by James Hickmann. All music from Epidemic Sounds/All3Media. Dan Snow's History Hit is a History Hit podcast.
