;D No, I'm not related to the desert fox,but i hope to make a name for myself ...lol.The name of the book is The U-Boat Commander's Handbook. It does not have an author but was translated by the U.S. Navy and was published by Thomas Publications(ISBN-0-939631-21-0). This book was written by the German navy in 1942 and updated in 1943. This was the bible for all U-Boat commanders. So these are the real tactics that were used during the war. Best 8 dollars I've ever spent.
ps . If you search for it on amazon you should find it
