Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Captain Roskill has long been recognised as the leading authority on The Royal Navy's part in the Second World War. His official History (originally published for the HMSO) is unlikely even to be superceded. His narrative is highly readable and the analysis is clear. Roskill describes sea battles, convoy actions and the contribution made by technology in the shape of Asdic & Radar.Contents: Chronological Summary of Principal Events; The Pacific and Indian Oceans 1st January -31st July 1942-The African Campaigns 1st January-31st July 1942-The Priority of Maritime Air Operations 1942-The Battle of the Atlantic.
