Walter Forstmann (1883-1973) was the second most effective German submariner of the First World War. Under his command the U-39 submarine for 17 combat campaigns in 1915-1917 managed to sink, damage and capture as a prize more than one and a half hundred merchant ships with a total tonnage of more than 400000 gross tons. Forstmann tells about his raids in the Mediterranean in his memoirs, translated into Russian for the first time and presented in this book. The edition is supplemented by the memoirs of an anonymous German submariner about the combat operations of a submarine under the fictitious number U-195 in the Arctic Ocean. In addition, the collection includes an essay "Operations of German submarines in the polar latitudes in World War I", written by N. Timoshenko. The reader will be able to get acquainted with the actions of the submarine fleet in World War I in different theaters of combat from the African coast to the polar latitudes.
