Lothar Guenther Buchheim, author of Das Boot, also published a book of photographs and descriptive text from his time aboard a U-boat. You might need a larger library to find it, but it's certainly worth a look. The English translation was published in the US by Knopf as U-Boat War in 1978.
Do avoid a book called Bitter Ocean by David Fairbank White. Dude thinks he can write and he can not.
