This is a thrilling history and a detailed survey of the equipment and vessels of the Schnellbootes - the fast boat flotillas of the German Kriegsmarine during World War Two. The S-Bootes, true sea corsairs, were charged with the harassment and torpedoing of allied convoys which were approaching too close to the Normandy and Mediterranean coasts. This re-issue was originally published in June 2003, ISBN 2-913903-49-5, GBP 24.95. It has been unavailable since 2005. It is illustrated with 300 rare and previously unpublished wartime photographs, plus 50 specially commissioned colour plates.

Most Excellent !!!
If you are into MTB's, this is the book to have. Deals not only with the Kriegsmarine's S-Boote, but also with Italian MAS, British and US MTB's and even with Russian G-5's. Superb pictures of boats, crews, weapons, propeganda cards, bunkers etc. etc. Supported by extensive text.
As with other H&C books: You will not be dissapointed !
