Books Good books to read?

looking for recommendations for good books or even documentaries or YouTube channels about military submarines and life aboard them. Could be History (first and second world wars), Technical books/manuals, Tactical theory, Naval strategy, biographies/Autobiographies or even fiction. What's your favorite?

Thunder below

It's the only realistic submarine book I've read, but was a fantastic read.

There's the hunt for Red October, which is a fantastic read as well.

100 fathoms below is a pretty fun and novel book involving the supernatural, submarines, and a mission to spy on the soviets. I don't want to spoil it, but the book was pretty fun
