Just got what has got to be the ultimate book on U-boats. Title is "Ubootwaffe, Kleine Kampfverbände 1939-45", by Waldemar Trojca.
It is 600 pages (!), 50 pages of color plates, many hundreds of photos, line drawings, and a stack of KM grid maps, including one of the entire world. Also has the final fates of every U-boat, and even the locations of all Allied warships and planes sunk/shot down by U-boats.
The book even has the official Kriegsmarine painting regulations for down to every last nut and bolt; invaluable for modelers. This is the best book on U-boats I have ever seen. It's rather pricey at $90 USD, but was worth every penny of it. If you can get past the expense, get this book before it's out of print...
