This is a really well written book. I couldnt put it down. Although only the last third of the book deals with his service on submarines, it was a real page turner. This is a must read for anyone interested in WWII.
Engrossing war novel of the first calibre

If you're interested in a good World War II-era story from the perspective of the German sailor, then this is the book for you. It won't disappoint. Except when you've come to the end and realize that there's no more...

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
One of the most entertaining books I have ever read,it displays a sense of humor and brutal realism seldom seen in today's historical novels. The characters are believable, and their simple honesty is refreshing in contrast to todays perfect characters that are a dime a dozen and very forgettable. Pick this one up if you are sick of the predictable and tiresome novels in which todays authors are mass producing with mind numbing regularity obviously using the same formula which enables them to mass produce the same stories under different titles.
Graphic and compelling account of German Navy WWII
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Wonderfully and skillfully written account of a German sailor in WWII that also weaves parallels with Greek mythology to American classics. Sometimes lighhearted, sometimes bewildering imagery, but always an adventure that takes the hero to hell and back - several times. When one wonders if Teidemann ever makes it back, one realizes that the entire book is written in the first person and this somehow adds to the value of the story. A wonderful examination of the very worst in human nature and nature itself. You will never see seagulls quite the same after this.
