In the early days of submarines, they were frowned on by traditional Navies as being like snipers - sneaky, low, and completely without honor.
That vision went away rapidly though when the Germans showed just how much of a strategic weapon submarines could be. In fact, in the Treaty of Versailles which ended WWI, the Allies stipulated that Germany relinquish all of her submarines - in large part so that Allied scientists and engineers could study their technology and designs.

What is U-Boat submarine warfare?
In almost all navies during WWII, submarines were called "boats"...not ships. In Germany, a sub was called an "under-sea-boat", with German enthusiasts preferring to use the German spelling/pronunciation of "boot" for boat. Bottom line: "U-Boat submarine warfare..." is simply submarine warfare (Sub Warfare is what most boys in America grew up calling it).

How did the Americans respond to the war?
Early on in WW 1 most Americans viewed the war as an example of why the US should not involve itself in European wars. The secret treaties, the chaos and alliances formed all encouraged Americans to not want to be involved. Later, due to German submarine warfare, and anti-German propaganda, many Americans saw the war as democratic nations at war with despotic ones. This gave Americans a more favorable view of the western Allies. This allowed for the entry of the US into that war, especially the non restricted German submarine policy.

What is the name of the first submarine in World War 1?
Diesel-Electric submarines had been in use for years before WWI; there were many commissioned boats on both sides of the war before it even started, so there is no one particular submarine used in WWI. However, the one boat that arguably had the most impact at the beginning of WWI was the German submarine U-20, which was responsible for sinking the British passenger liner RMS Lusitania. This single submarine attack had repercussions throughout the war, causing policy shifts in Germany considering submarine warfare, and which affected submarine warfare in general forever.
