Almost finished Operation Drumbeat by Michael Gannon which has been very good, then I have a few to dive into: Black May (M. Gannon) Convoy (Martin Middlebrook) U333 (Peter Cremer), amongst others.I always keep two books handy for reference: First U-Boat Flotilla (Lawrence Paterson) and U-Boat Command and the Battle of the Atlantic (Jak P. Mallmann Showell). Also I like to keep U-Boat War (Lothar-Gunther Buccheim) handy just to keep looking at and losing myself in his absorbing photos. And finally, I think it is time to dust off The Cruel Sea again, which I reread frequently. I consider this the best fiction book ever written about naval warfare. Henry

(Sorry about original post - I used quote marks around each title and that seemed to cause the errors.)
