Submarines (Classic Reprint): A List of References in the New York Public Library

Description:Excerpt from Submarines: A List of References in the New York Public Library I have read with great interest the proof sheets of this compilation of books, magazines and technical papers relating to submarines. Now that the submarine is becoming recognized as the most important weapon ever introduced into "The art of warfare on the high seas," information regarding its development is being eagerly sought by many people who are interested in the advancement of science. 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 submarine 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. This compilation will make available to the student of submarine navigation information that it has heretofore been almost impossible to procure, covering, as it does, published articles on this subject dating back from a period of over two thousand years to the present time. I remember in years gone by, many days spent in searching through various libraries for information regarding the submarine, of which little could then be found. I can, therefore, appreciate the great amount of time which the compiler of this bibliography must have given to this investigation.
