More than 50 photographs and illustrations tells the history of the German submarine U-1105, known as the "Black Panther." The U-1105 was one of fewer than ten submarines produced and outfitted with an experimental synthetic rubber skin designed to counter Allied sonar devices; the black rubber coating earning it its nickname. This illustrated book uses new and rare images to explore this remarkable U-Boat. 128 pages, 10"x 10", hardcover.
