He throws new light, too, on the achievements of our own sub- marines not only in the Baltic and the Sea of Marmora but also in the North Sea. It is not generally known that British sub- matinee fought and destroyed a number of ' '-boats, and inflicted more damage on the enemy. warships than our Navy suffered from submarine attack.
