U-Boat on Enemy Patrol 1942 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 the Germans during the Second World War,but to my knowledge, this is the only one that is a "Bildband" or total picture book, with photo images on every page...sometimes full page! This excellent item is an overview of the UBoat submarine Service, and does not specifically mentionU-Boats by ID number, Captain or crew member names. [ Although most of the photos were taken on board the uboat of Kptlt. Mengersen U-101 ] 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....then continue with....on patrol,engaging the enemy navy, everyday crew life, etc....then finally...returning home. Hardcover94 pages about 90 b/w photos In very good exterior and fine interior condition .Minor wear to boards, free front paper removed, else ok. Photos pages are clean and in fine conditon. All pages are complete and tight in the binding. Approx/Measurements: 10 3/4" x 8 1/2" 1.1 lbs. by - Harald B. Published by Verlag C. Bertelsmann Gutersloh Photo contributions by Kriegsberichter Dietrich, Dr. Frank, Jordan, Schwich, Archiv U-Bootswaffe and Dr. Harald B. Shipping Options
