Entry Text: MULLIGAN, Timothy P. Lone Wolf: The Life and Death of U-Boat Ace Werner Henke. xxi, 247p., bibliog., illus., index. Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 1993.

Henke sank 26 ships in the second half of the war and this is his story and that of U 515 up to its sinking and his capture in 1944. He was later shot while trying to escape from POW camp in Washington - represented here as a form of suicide. An interesting account of an unusual character.
