Samenvatting	Often forgotten among the many aspects of World War II is the alliance between Germany and Japan, which was fraught with difficulty due not only to geographical separation but some very real philosophical and operational differences. But in the Indian Ocean these 'reluctant allies' did come together to conduct naval operations that might well have had disastrous consequences for the Allies but for the intervention of fate and the inevitable friction of war. Captain Krug served in U-boats in that theatre and in the Far East, and with the assistance of scholars of both nations has produced an account of German-Japanese naval interaction, providing an insight into the faulty mechanism of an alliance between totalitarian powers characterised by suspicion and an unwillingness to share information and assets freely. This book sets out to be a useful addition to the history of World War II and is designed for those interested in naval operations, global strategy and international diplomacy during this period.
