I can't believe that nobody has read this book. It looked really good.

It's okay. Not just about the boats- it has chapters on the crew and pens.

Here's a "reader review" from Amazon.
" uboat reference, August 18, 2005 Reviewer: jim (ottawa canada) - See all my reviews since there is no review for this great book.. here goes. this is only about uboats and deals with all uboat types technically and their support structure and personel. it does not deal much with individual boats but some time is spent on history and operations. It is an excellent reference on uboat bases and bunkers. the uboat crew and ranks are covered and weapons and tactics are detailed. There are many photos and some illustrations that I would like to get prints of. the pc uboat game silent hunter 3 is as good as its top ratings indicate and it ties in well to this book. the book is a great value for the serious military reader." From the sounds of it, I think I need this book!

I just picked up this book while I was patrolling a book store.
About 1/2 way through it and it is a lot better than I thought it would be. Nice information on the less common U-boats, including my oft neglected Type XXIII Good gouge on the sub bases and how they were constructed. All in all, a worthwhile book to add to the ole sub library.
