CASABIANCA :THE SECRET MISSIONS OF A FAMOUS SUBMARINE BY CAPTAIN J L'HERMINIER
243 pages Publisher: SHAKESPEARE HEAD 1953 FIRST EDITION
Casabianca (Q183) was a Redoutable-class submarine of the French Navy. The class is also known as the "1500-ton class" and were termed in French de grande patrouille. She was named after Luc-Julien-Joseph Casabianca. Launched in 1935, she entered service in 1936. She escaped from Toulon during the scuttling of the fleet there on 27 November 1942, and continued in service with the Allied forces. Casabianca, commanded by Capitaine de frégate Jean l'Herminier, had a role in the liberation of Corsica, and was an important link between occupied France and the Free French government based in Algiers.
Casabianca was one of only five of the 31 Redoutable-class submarines to survive the Second World War.[
