The Wolf

I just read 'The Wolf' a book about a German Raider in WW1. It was very succesful, staying at sea for over a year and sinking and capturing many allied merchants. It even made it back to Kiel.

Now Im wondering if there are any books about radiers and submarines in either of the world wars, or just about submarines in general

Also read The Wolf if you can it's pretty interesting.

This is a pretty excellent book about the Atlantis, a successful German raider of WWII.
