Sobre este item
New York ; London : Simon & Schuster, 2006. First Edition. Hardback. Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dw. Particularly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and strong. Literally as new.; 8vo 8"" - 9"" tall; 350 pages; Bitter Ocean is a masterful, authoritative account of perhaps the least-known major battle of World War II, the Battle of the Atlantic. British, Canadian, and American air and sea forces fought the German U-boats in this desperate battle, and prevailed -- at a terrible cost. Drawing on a wealth of archival research as well as interviews with veterans on both sides of the ocean campaign, author and maritime journalist David Fairbank White takes us aboard ship and beneath the waves as he reconstructs this epic clash from both sides. As he tells the powerful, wrenching stories of individual convoys that suffered from the German submarine attacks, White displays a novelist's flair. Vividly written, Bitter Ocean is scrupulously factual, a triumph of scholarship that will enthrall every student of history. Physical description: 350 p. : maps ; 24 cm. Subjects: World War, 1939-1945 - Campaigns - Atlantic Ocean. Naval convoys - Atlantic Ocean - History.
