Simply written and highly accessible for a wider audience, the U-boat handbook attempted to anticipate every possible situation and to advise on suitable tactics. This superb wartime primary source is enhanced by a rare series of photographs taken on an actual combat patrol and published during the time of the Third Reich in the book "U-Boot Auf Feindfahrt".Together the handbook and these rare photographs provide a fascinating glimpse into the world of the U-boats from a firsthand perspective, and is essential reading for anyone interested in World War II from primary sources
