[UKönig]

The other day I went out and bought a book from my local Chapters store.

I could ill afford it (just means more noodle soup for dinner), but I could not let it sit on the shelves any longer.

It's chock full of pictures and information and although it tends to repeat it self a little here and there and occasionally mis-identifies a boat or a boat type, I can recommend the "Haynes" U-Boat 1936-1945 type VIIa-b-c, and c/41 Owners' Workshop Manual.

It also has some pretty good technical information and operating specs on the type VII U-boat. A good description of how the diving procedure was carried out, in 5 major steps.
I'd give it 4 stars (lost points for mis-identified boat types and odd spelling mistakes -for example type XII instead of type XXI), but because of the pictures , well worth the space in one's own library. Another must have for any U-boat "fan".
