The realities of naval combat as well as the facts are presented in this authoritative study. Using both a tabular and narrative format, it tells the story of all sixty-nine surface naval actions fought by major warships of the German navy against major warships of the British, French, American, Polish, Soviet, Norwegian, and Greek navies. While focusing on the operational details of these actions, the author also paints a broad overview of the naval war to give each battle context. Vincent O?Hara is the first to provide so much information in a single volume. Most books emphasize the famous actions?like those involving Bismarck and Graf Spee?at the expense of lesser known engagements, and in doing so distort the historical record.
