title: To the Last Salute: Memories of an Austrian U-Boat Commander
author:  Georg von Trapp 
description: "This book is the hitherto untold prequel to the legendary von Trapp history. In his narrative Captain von Trapp emerges as a patriot, a compassionate commander, and a self-effacing hero."-William Anderson, author of The World of the Trapp Family<br /><br />"[Georg] von Trapp captures the feeling of a bygone era where chivalry and love of country were paramount. . . . His amazing exploits in the Great War and life-and-death experiences as a commander of various U-boats will enthrall readers."-Military Heritage<br /><br />"[A] lively, amusing, at-times-gripping memoir of naval warfare in the Mediterranean, and U-boat life. . . . One of its fascinating aspects is the glimpse it offers into the multiethnic makeup of this imperial navy, and the admirable attitudes and behavior of a patriotic officer on the losing side of a great conflict."-The Atlantic<br /><br />"[Georg von Trapp] almost certainly always tried to put his best foot forward, and he emerges from his account as a man of great skill, considerable compassion . . . and sufficient tact and tolerance to handle the kind of polyglot crews that sailed for the Dual Monarchy. . . . He fought on to the end, knowing that the Dual Monarchy he served so well was crumbling. In the end, he gave the last salute of the title when the imperial flag was hauled down for the last time. Appealing to von Trapp family admirers, of course, and also to naval buffs, regardless of how they respond to music."-Booklist<br /><br />"[Elizabeth Campbell] has provided readers of naval history and popular culture something of great utility, and great fun: an English translation of her famous ancestor's World War I memoir. . . . Trapp's book gives us a rare glimpse into the world of the earlier submariner, and of a naval force that no longer exists. . . . An entertaining story that gives the reader a vivid picture of submarine warfare at its most primitive." -- Donald Stoker "Journal of Military History" (08/17/2007)<br /><br />?[Elizabeth Campbell] has provided readers of naval history and popular culture something of great utility, and great fun: an English translation of her famous ancestor's World War I memoir. . . .
