[Norman · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good read. A well written account of various naval actions in both world wars.
However in Chapter 7 - "Raider at Large" and the article on Bismark, HMS Prince of Wales was a Battleship and not a "heavy cruiser" and the HMS Rodney's guns were 16" & not 15".
The photo of HMS Hardy is in fact the later HMS Hardy and NOT the HMS Hardy of Narvik fame.
