Default Great Xmas Gifts.
I have had a excellent holiday season so far.
I got some great and unexpected presents from my family.
Namely plenty of U-boot reading material.
Here is a picture off all the books i got to add to my current collection.
Ive now got plenty to read now while i go through the days and hours between convoys out on patrol.

I had to pack all of mine because I changed jobs and moved. It killed me to have them packed away.

I see you are missing the "Ladybird Book of U Boats" and the "Boy's Own Stories of Kapitainleutnant Zur Zee Albert Kreigelbaum"

Just reading these now, good accounts of the struggle.

Just a couple of thoughts spring to my (UK) mind, an apparent dislike of the 'Brits' pervades the text, and seemingly even more important to the author is a crusade to defend US Admiral Ernest King.

I don't think I'm misinterpreting things am I?

I think that is the only thing that stops me getting them,it would annoy the hell out of me since its something you just don't find in other books about the battle of the Atlantic,where the British were much admired for they're convoy abilities and seamanship:hmm:
