- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Attack on Orleans the WWI submarine raid on Cape Cod by Jake Klim
Very few Americans know that during the 1st World War a German submarine shelled and sank a tug boat and 3 barges off the coast of Cape Cod Massachusetts. This is the story of that raid and what happened afterwards. Written from news reports and 1st hand accounts of the incident, the story has the feel of a techno- thriller. The story shows the courage and idiocracyies of the men,women and technology of the time.
