U-boat War Patrol The Hidden Photographic Diary of U-564

This illustrated record is unique in that it charts a complete history of a single patrol and provides a new insight into life aboard through the successes and trials of U-564. Photographed during the summer of 1942 by an onboard war correspondent they show a U-Boat in action in the Atlantic and Caribbean, as the Kriegsmarine teetered on the verge of what turned out to be its ultimate downfall. The crew are shown in virtually every station and several other U-Boats and their commanders feature as they gather to resupply or to attack.Paterson, Lawrence is the author of 'U-boat War Patrol The Hidden Photographic Diary of U-564', published 2006 under ISBN 9781591148906 and ISBN 1591148901.
