SynopsisAn insight into the design, construction and operation of the feared World War 2 German Type VIIC U-boat., An insight into the design, construction and operation of the feared World War 2 German Type VIIC U-boat. The German Type VIIC U-boat, scourge of Allied shipping convoys during the Second World War, was the workhorse of the German U-boat force. With some 568 Type VIIs in use between 1940 and 1945 it was a potent fighting vessel that could hunt for long periods in the far reaches of the western and southern Atlantic. Centerpiece of the Haynes U-boat Owners' Workshop Manual is the sole surviving example of a Type VIIC U-boat, U-995, which is on display at the German Naval Memorial near Kiel in northern Germany.
Who doesn't love a U-Boat workshop manual? This is great for anyone who is interested in the U-Boat, and I love the concept of creating these classic Haynes manuals for technology and history. Before the internet every shade tree mechanic used these to fix their cars, so it's great nostalgia.
Like every other Haynes manual I have they are very informative and thorough. I love the concept where Haynes went from producing just standard car maintenance manuals to general information on everything else around else.
