I second this recommendation, but also caution that it will only be of interest to someone truly interested in the details of the design evolution. Some others that I have enjoyed The U-Boat Wars 1916-1945 by John Terraine This book goes into a lot of detail about the evolution of the U-boat tactics in the often overlooked inter-war period U-Boat War by Lothar-Gunther Buchheim This book is more focused on the crews and the personal experiences of the men. An interesting insight The U-Boat Offensive 1914-1945 by V. V. Tarrant This book has a lot of stats on the U-boats, the commanders, the career of the boat. The afore mentioned book series by Clay Blair are always a good recommendation. However, Blair's books are not what I consider an "easy read". Good luck with this. Collecting U-boat books is a terrible and expensive hobby.
