The Second World War - The War at Sea
Model: ESS 30 Size: 5" x 7" Age Range: 12-89 Skill Level: 2 (out of 10)
Essentials Issue 30 The Second World War - The War at Sea written by Philip D Grove, Mark J Grove & Alastair Finlan. ISBN 1841763977. Essential Histories is a multi-volume history of war seen from political, strategic, tactical, cultural and individual perspectives. Quoted: "Read them and gain a deeper understanding of war and a stronger basis for thinking about peace". This volume provides a comprehensive guide to three major theatres of combat: the battles of the Atlantic, the war in the Mediterranean and the fighting in the Indian Ocean. The war at sea was a vital contest, which if lost would have irreversibly altered the balance of the military forces on land. The sea lanes were the logical arteries of British and subsequent Allied armies fighting on the three continents of Africa, Asia and Europe. The Second World War was ultimately won by land forces but it could always have been lost at sea.
