Launched in 1945 and commissioned two years later, submarine HMS Alliance was built for service with the Royal Navy in the Far East. Alliance had a long and distinguished career of more than 28 years that took her all over the world. Today, Alliance is the centrepiece at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, Gosport, where the submarine experience is brought to life by tours around the boat. Former submariner and historian Peter Goodwin gives Alliance the Haynes Manual treatment, examining in detail her construction and restoration, and describing what it was like to live, work and go to war in a submarine.

Peter Goodwin served in the Royal Navy as an engineer on diesel-electric and nuclear submarines before pursuing a career as a maritime historian and author. He is the author of the Haynes HMS Victory Manual and lives in Hampshire.

The first submarine to receive the Haynes Manual treatment. Unique insights into the design, construction and operation of a Cold War diesel-electric submarine. Includes detailed onboard and exterior photography, and original technical drawings of the boat's construction. HMS Alliance is the centrepiece at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum at Gosport. Published in association with the Royal Navy Submarine Museum.
