T/ze history and development of submarine boats; where I have collected all the material it has been possible for me to get access to. III. The construction of submarine boats where I have given a detailed description of how I think such boats ought to be constructed, and which principles ought to be the guiding ones. Special attention has been paid to previous experiences, and the conclusions arrived at are the result of very careful study and calculations. In fact, the design, as described in its main features, is one worked out in the course of three years, while I studied Naval Architecture at the Royal Naval College in Greenwich. The design must, however, be regarded merely as an illustration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture on Submarine Boats, and Their Application to Torpedo Operations In this lecture I have endeavored give a general history of the science of submarine navigation; giving detailed descriptions [when I have been able to obtain them] of special apparatus designed for the purpose, and a general idea of others where my researches have not been so successful. The greater portion of the information on this subject, which has found its way into print, is vague in the extreme; probably from the fact that it is a subject of very little interest to the general reader and only sought after by the curious, who, in most cases, would pre fer the accounts of marvelous results attained rather than the dry detail of the mechanical devices necessary to obtain them. As re gards the lack of other sources of information, both in times past and present; it may probably be ascribed either to illiteracy on the part of the inventors or a desire of keeping their knowledge to them selves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Submarine Torpedo Boat: Its Characteristics and Modern Development To those familiar with this type of craft there is nothing remarkable in just the mere mileage covered by the Deutschland on this voyage, but the performance of this vessel is spectacular because it has succeeded in leaving a well blockaded port and traversed waters abounding in hostile craft undetected to the end. It is very difficult at this time to obtain any exact or reliable information as to the real dimensions of this vessel. It has been variously given out in widely conflicting statements.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Submarines: A List of References in the New York Public Library The destiny of the submarine is as yet but little understood by the casual reader; at the present time its introduction into the art of warfare has caused it to be condemned by many, while others look upon it as a means of defense against or a means of destroying overwhelming sea power and, perhaps, think it may be utilized to assist in extending domination over other peoples when combined with military supremacy on land. I think those who use it for any illegitimate purpose will eventually see their error. Submarine inventors have, from the earliest days, considered the sub marine boat as a means to advanced knowledge of things beneath the surface of the seas, to recover and restore to the use of mankind many of the things that have gone to the bottom of the sea in ships, and also to recover the natural products of the sea, in the nature of shell fish, sponges, coral, pearls, and to reach mineral and other deposits heretofore inaccessible and unavailable to the people. The introduction of the submarine in war will eventually prove a benefit to all of the smaller and less powerful nations, as the submarine is undoubtedly able to offer to any nation the greatest degree of security for the least expenditure of money in the defense of its coast line.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boys' Book of Submarines Submarine! It's a word that's in everybody's mind - on every one's tongue. The very sound of it conjures up thoughts of great ships that were and will be torpedoed and sent to the bottom of the old ocean to rust and to rot there. Of all the mighty monsters that ever sailed the seven seas this piratical craft is by long odds the most daring as well as the most dangerous to both life and property. And yet while of course you know that a submarine can travel on or under the water, dive like a porpoise and destroy an enemy ship by shooting a torpedo at her, do you know exactly how an undersea boat works and fights and just how she does all the seemingly impossible feats for which she is notorious? At the present time the greatest war in the world's history is being fought, and you are more than a mere looker-on for your country is in it and you may be one of the boys who will be called to the colors to defend her on, or against, these undersea craft.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III. THE CONSTRUCTION OF SUBMARINE BOATS. The clearest way of showing the ideas and principles which ought to be the guiding ones in such a construction, is to simply describe in detail a complete design, all along giving the reasoning why such or such an arrangement has been adopted. This will illustrate the many practical difficulties of the problem, and will in the most positive way answer the numerous questions which naturally occur to every one who takes the trouble to think over the matter. Before describing the details of the design, it will be well to sketch out its main features, of which the accompanying sketch (Fig. 5, Plate II.) is an illustration. The essential point of this vessel is that it is able to dive down at any time, and continue its course under water for a considerable distance. This is attained by giving the vessel two different modes of propulsion, namely, steam and electricity. The steam-power enables it to move along the surface of the water, just as would do most of our modern men-of-war, if we take away their light upper part. When the vessel dives down, the electric motors are thrown into gear, and thus she may go on under the water, as long as there is any electricity in her electric storage-cells. The cells may be re-filled by using the ship's own steamengine as motor, and the electric machines as dynamos. The transverse section is throughout the vessel an oval with its greatest axis horizontal. This shape has been adopted partly because it is favourable as regards strength, on account of the curved surface, and partly because it gives small draught of water. The vertical axis has been made just big enough to give the necessary head-room, and thus reduce the depth to a minimum; and the breadth is...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under the Periscope For those who have no knowledge of the ways and habits of submarines, a preface is unnecessary, and my only hope is that this book may enlighten them on points on which they were formerly in ignorance. One is often asked, 'what does it feel like to be below the sea?' and a host of questions of a similar character, and it is just these questions that I have endeavoured to answer. The incidents recorded are all founded on fact, and many of them are personal experiences. Of my one-time comrades of the Submarine Service, however, I have a favour to ask. I beg them not to be too critical nor to point out its deficiencies, but rather to remember that this book was written while the War was still with us, and that a large amount of detail had therefore to be omitted. Moreover, the boat described is of one particular class, and if they themselves have never served in that class of submarine, 'more's the pity.' All luck to our successors in the next war, and may they fight in the open air. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
