Wolfgang L?zth in an unguarded moment on the bridge of U-181. He is wearing what had become the standard uniform for crews in the Indian Ocean, shorts and boots, and his beard has already taken on its distinctive ??sfringed??? look. FASCINATING black and white images from a new book have helped lift the lid on the story of the German naval commander who is credited with sinking an astonishing forty-seven Allied ships and a submarine during the Second World War, Wolfgang L?zth. Photos from ???U-Boat Ace: The Story of Wolfgang L?zth??? show the commander brazenly puffing on a cigarette on the bridge of his U-43 boat. Additional snaps capture L?zth???s sinking of Swedish freighter, Sicilia, whilst another shows his funeral procession, just two days after his death. Author, Jordan Vause, discussed what it was that drew him to Luth???s story has given readers a small insight into the stories told in the book. Jordan Vause / Greenhill Books / mediadrumworld.com
