This is an original picture book featuring men and vessels of the WWII U-Boat German fleet. A number of U-Boat themed publications were produced by during the Second World War, but to my knowledge, this is the only one that is a total picture book, with photo images on every page... This excellent item is an overview of the UBoat submarine Service, and does not specifically mention U-Boats by ID number, Captain or crew member names.
Although most of the photos were taken on board the uboat of Kptlt. It does give a page after page glimpse into the life of U-Boat crews and their vessels. The images begin with preparation for the voyage and leaving port.... On patrol, engaging the enemy navy, everyday crew life, etc....
