Descripton: While this book deals with a Royal Navy Submariner, his first appointment was to HMS Graph (ex U-570). Chapter 11 of the book concerns a wartime patrol in HMS Graph, comparisons with British submarine construction, and the notice plate fitted in the German Dockyard "The Führer leads and we follow," from which the title of the book is derived. Phil Durham also served briefly after the war on another captured U-boat, which was used as a mobile display. Sadly his postwar career as a submarine commander was cut short by a serious illness.
