I'm almost through my copy of U-boat War and it is indeed absolutely excellent.

Just thought I'd shamelessly bump this thread and tell everyone that my review of U-boat War has been published on the site:

http://www.subsim.com/books/uboatwar.htm

The last paragraph is actually a quote from the book, and not actually part of the review. I don't think it adds anything and I've asked Neal to remove it sometime in the near future.

If you want to see some of Buchheim's photos, I've put together a Flickr gallery of them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/2741763...7621890839041/

Amazing photos.... Thank you for sharing . I can't really describe the feeling I have when looking at them.

Now that I think of it, I think this was the first time I saw the real life Der Alte.

I just ordered a used copy for $7 and change. After tax and shipping I paid $11.50.

Here it is for just a little more on Amazon UK.
