Wolves at Saint Nazaire by Anthony Saunders
Portrayed in the southern lock at the French port of Saint Nazaire
during the Autumn of 1941 are from left: U552, commanded by
Kapitanleutnant Erich Topp, U567, commanded by Oberleutnant zur See
Engelbert Endrass and U93, commanded by Oberleutnant zur See Horst Elfe.
Saint Nazaire was home for two U-boat flotillas: 7. U-Flotille, the 'Wegener'
Flotilla and 6.U-Flotille, the 'Hundius' Flotilla. It produced some of the
top U-boat commanders including Topp, Endrass, Prien and Kretschmer. The
base reached a peak of activity in mid 1943, however, by the end of the
war the entire port had been flattened by the allied air forces. The only
buildings to survive the onslaught were the bomb proof U-bunkers which can
still be seen to this day.

Against All Odds by Robert Taylor.
Robert Taylors painting protrays the renowned defiance of the U-Boat crews. Caught on the surface by a PBY Catalina the gun crews of a type VIIc U-Boat are quickly into action. The 3.7cm anti-aircraft gun is hurriedly reloaded while on the upper platform the two 2cm anti-aircraft twins take chunks out of the Catalinas tail - enough damage to secure a respite from the attack. Soon they will dive to relative safety beneath the Atlantic swell.

Kriegsmarine U-boats 1939-45 (1) by Gordon Williamson.
This, the first of two volumes on Germanys World War II U-boats, traces their development from the early U-boats of the Kaisers Navy, through the prohibition on German submarines following the Armistice in 1918 and the subsequent Treaty of Versailles, their secret development through a cover-firm in Holland, culminating in the formation of the 1st U-boat Flotilla in 1935 with the modern Type II. The operational history section includes examples from the Type VIIA, Type VIIB, VIID, VIIE and VIIF Classes before concentrating on the mainstay of the U-boat arm, the Type VIIC. Comparisons are also made with the standard allied submarines, their strengths, weaknesses and U-boat tactics.

Kriegsmarine U-boats 1939-45 (2) by Gordon Williamson.
This title follows the New Vanguard 51: Kriegsmarine U-boats 1939-45 (1) and charts the continuing development of the U-boat in German service, including the evolution of the Type IX as a long range cruiser intended for solo operations in distant waters. Also covered is the revolutionary Type XXI, conceived in 1942 and launched in April 1944. The first true submarine rather than submersible, the Type XXIs arrival was just too late to influence the war. Other vessels featured are the Type XXIII, a technically advanced small vessel armed with only two torpedoes, and the Type X minelayers, which were more often used as supply boats than in their intended role.

Type VII U-Boats by Robert C. Stern.
After the narrow defeat of their U-boat fleet in the First World War, the German Navy analyzed their experiences and devised new theories and plans for a future conflict. The principal result of this study was the development of the daring concept of Rudeltaktik, which involved co-ordinated pack attacks on the Allied convoy systems that had proved so successful in defence.

Atlantic Comrades by Ivan Berryman.

She is shown at dawn as two type VII U-Boats glide towards her for a friendly rendezvous and to take on much needed supplies, as well as a few of the luxuries that the tiny u-boats were simply too small to carry.

Operation Drumbeat by Anthony Saunders.
The entry of the United States into the war opened up vast new hunting grounds for the German u-boat fleet. Operation Paukenschlag (Drumbeat in English) began in January 1942, bringing the U-boats their easiest pickings of the war. Over 300 allied vessels were sunk during the Paukenschlag along the US coastline, ranging from New York harbor, to the Straits of Florida. This period, also known as the second Happy Times to the men of the U-boats, was only brought to an end in mid 1942 by the formation of allied convoy systems. On the evening of April 5th 1942, U552, commanded by Kapitanleutnant Erich Topp, sealed the fate of the British tanker MV British Splendour east of Cape Hatteras. The U-boat was part of the fourth wave of boats of Operation Paukenschlag, she returned to Saint Nazaire on April 27th 1942 having sunk seven ships during the patrol.

Catalina Attack by John Wynne Hopkins.
D for Donald of 270 squadron, Royal Air Force, out of Freetown, West Africa operating in the Atlantic Ocean. It was during routine operation search that D for Donald surprised U515 on the surface and immediately attacked the submarine. U515 in putting up stiff resistance blew a large hole in the hull of D for Donald and the magazine of the starboard side 0.5 twin Browning was hit and the subsequent shrapnel wounded both blister gunners. U515 escaped but was sunk by an American naval hunter group a year later. D for Donald limped back to base and managed to make the beach before it would sink completely.

Kriegsmarine U-boats
1939-45 (1) by Gordon Williamson. This, the first of two volumes on
Germanys World War
II U-boats, traces their development from the early U-boats of the Kaisers Navy, through the prohibition on German submarines following the
Armistice in 1918 and the subsequent Treaty of Versailles, their secret
development through a cover-firm in Holland, culminating in the
formation of the 1st U-boat Flotilla in 1935 with the modern Type
II. The operational history section includes examples from the Type
VIIA, Type VIIB, VIID, VIIE and VIIF Classes before concentrating on the
mainstay of the U-boat arm, the Type VIIC. Comparisons are also made
with the standard allied submarines, their strengths, weaknesses and
U-boat tactics.
Kriegsmarine U-boats
1939-45 (2) by Gordon Williamson. This title follows the New Vanguard 51: Kriegsmarine
U-boats 1939-45 (1) and charts the continuing development of the
U-boat in German service, including the evolution of the Type IX as a long
range cruiser intended for solo operations in distant waters. Also
covered is the revolutionary Type XXI, conceived in 1942 and launched in
April 1944. The first true submarine rather than submersible, the
Type XXIs arrival was just too late to influence the war. Other
vessels featured are the Type XXIII, a technically advanced small vessel
armed with only two torpedoes, and the Type X minelayers, which were more
often used as supply boats than in their intended role.
Type VII U-Boats by
Robert C. Stern. After the narrow defeat of their U-boat fleet in
the First World War, the German Navy analyzed their experiences and
devised new theories and plans for a future conflict. The principal
result of this study was the development of the daring concept of Rudeltaktik,
which involved co-ordinated pack attacks on the Allied convoy systems
that had proved so successful in defence.
Donitz was one of the architects of this new scheme,
and his favoured method was the surfaced night attack, the U-boats
shadowing the convoys for some time, communicating the position of their
quarry and then converging from the surrounding ocean areas for the kill.
The perfect boat to implement this doctrine had to have
certain characteristics; it required an effective operational range and
the levels of speed and armament usually associated with large boats; and
it had to be highly maneuverable with a fast dive - a factor normally
exhibited by smaller boats. It needed excellent communications and,
above all, it had to be easy to build because a great many were
needed. Armed with such a weapon, Donitz was convinced that, given
the will, Germany could win any tonnageschlact (tonnage battle) in
the Atlantic.
