"Submarine Warfare, Past, Present, and Future" by Herbert C. Fyfe is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work traces the development of submarine warfare through various phases, exploring the technology and strategic applications of submarines from their inception to the author's contemporary context. The book aims to provide an accessible overview for readers interested in naval warfare and the evolution of under-water craft. The opening of the book
establishes the author's intent to fill a gap in existing literature regarding submarine warfare, which had been largely overlooked in popular discourse despite its significance. Fyfe outlines his personal fascination with submarines and emphasizes the need for public understanding of naval matters, depicting submarines as innovative yet contentious devices in warfare. He introduces pivotal historical events, such as the early attempts at submarine navigation by figures like David Bushnell and Robert Fulton and highlights their significance in shaping modern naval strategies. The text discusses the balance between innovation and skepticism from naval authorities, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of the submarines' role in future conflicts.
