The Odyssey of a U-Boat Commander
I wanna read this book, but $103 is more than I can afford. Checked the Houston library, no luck. Anyone know of a cheaper paperback edition?
http://www.amazon.com/Odyssey-U-Boat.../dp/0275938980 Any ideas? Has anyone read this? |
That is quite pricey. :o But it could be worse...

Yup, that's one I want to get my hands on as well. It's on my Wish List at Amazon... keep promising myself that I'll treat myself out of a holiday bonus or some such, but the money always ends up being needed elsewhere.
I haven't seen a cheaper version anywhere either, and Amazon's usually the cheapest source that I trust anyway. Never spent anywhere near that much on just one book before, but eventually I'll cough it up because, dude, it's TOPP. :D |

I'm getting a broken link message when I try to go to bookfinders.com - anybody else having any luck with that?
Did a Froogle search for sellers, here's a link to that: http://www.google.com/products/catal...7&os=sellers#p Looks like the lowest price is around $78 but I've never heard of that seller. |
The link is with no "s"
http://www.bookfinder.com/ Bought through links found there many times ... normally you end up on a site such as abebooks that handles multiple antiquariats and is trustworthy, as far as I can tell. |

So it's all of you requesting it what pushes the price so far, uh?
I see I'm not the only one who wants it :haha: |
Don't look at me, Amazon was listing it at that price when I first looked it up.
In other words, blame Neal. :O: |
For that price, I would expect Erich Topp to deliver the book himself......or young, buxom, scantily clad females.
:D |
It's a good book. It's more reflective than thrilling. Interesting insights into the history of the period and his post-war career in the West German Navy and NATO. If you are looking for thrilling u-boat exploits, this is definitely not the book for you.
I purchased the book in 1997 and was fortunate enough to get it signed by Topp in 1999. :ping: |
