520 |a "Starting weeks after Hitler declared war on the United States in mid-December 1941 and lasting until the war with Germany was all but over, seventy-three German U-boats attacked New England waters, from Montauk, New York, to the tip of Nova Scotia at Cape Sable. Around 15 percent of these boats were sunk by Allied counterattacks. Also, five surrendered in the region, and three were sunk off New England--near Block Island, Massachusetts, Bay and off Nantucket. There were thirty-four Allied merchant or naval ships sunk by these subs: one of them, the Eagle, was not admitted to have been sunk by the Germans until decades later. U-boats in New England traces the little-known stories of these daring enemy submarine missions that penetrated New England waters" --  |c Book jacket flap
