Bismarck

24 Hours to Doom

Edición de la obra Bismarck

"May, 1941. German battleship *Bismarck* has broken out into the Atlantic to ravage Allied convoys. Hitler's flagship could deliver a killer blow to Britain's war effort. The British launch an all-or-nothing bid to sink her. On 26-27 May, aircraft carrier *Ark Royal*, along with battleships *King George V* and *Rodney*, plus cruisers and destroyers, are among those who hunt and pursue the foe. This is the story of the finale of the chase and the culminating brutal close-quarters battle, as *Bismarck* makes a desperate effort to escape the enemy. Using eyewitness accounts of Royal Navy sailors, Royal Marines and Swordfish torpedo-bomber aviators - including searing testimony gleaned by the author during unique interviews - one of the Second World War's most dramatic events is brought thundering to life."
