"All in all, this is a most interesting look at a single U-Boat and the many roles it played in a variety of tasks." --Sea Classics "This work is an interesting examination of both the career and wreckage of U-1105, the only remaining late-war German Type VIIC ... [Hamilton] enthusiasm for the ship and her survivability is something that can be shared by students of history, naval architecture, and marine archaeology." --The Northern Mariner
