I don't think it's in print anymore. The book was copyrighted in 1952. I have the Bantam paperback version printed in 1987. ISBN 0-553-26730-2. That should help you find it in the library or on Amazon.com

Interesting story, mainly for the escape to Argentina.

He let everyone who wanted to go back to Germany off in Norway, and they reported to the Allies that U-977 had sunk, so no one was looking for it.

Thanks againb PB for the added info.

I'll look for it soon at the local library. Amazon is just up the road from us in New Castle, DE., so I might stop in and give them a visit... if it's possible. I've been by there numerous times and always wanted to drop in, so this is as good an excuse as any. LOL
