Critical Convoy Battles of WWII

By Jurgen Rohwer

Praised by Paul Kennedy as "Remarkable...a feat of historical reconstruction," this book plunges into the Battle of the Atlantic's 1943 climax, World War II's longest continuous campaign. Germany's U-boats achieved their last great triumph in March, destroying nearly 150,000 tons of Allied supplies and bringing the Axis perilously close to interrupting vital supply lines—and perhaps winning the war. This blow-by-blow account of the largest convoy battle meticulously analyzes the tactics, technology, and intelligence of both sides.
