Product Description

This comprehensive volume covers three major theatres of combat - the Atlantic, the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean. It reveals how crucial victory at sea was to the outcome of World War II, as sea lanes were the logistical arteries of the Allies fighting abroad. World War II was won on land, but could easily have been lost at sea.

Very short but wonderfully useful account of the sea war in WWII (minus the Pacific) in just 96 pages written by three lecturers heavily involved in the area. Love to know if you can get better or more consise. Praised for it's chronology in Warships International Fleet Review and used as a text book at BRNC.
