Hey guys

I have started reading the account of the U564 and its experience and started to wonder if there exist similar accounts of how it was to crew a merchant in a convoy during WWII...
The reason it interests me is that the history books I have, focus on the historic facts, and less on the personal first hand experience.

Are you aware of any books that cover this?
