Descrizione
8vo., First Edition, with 20 plates on 8; cloth, backstrip lettered in silver, a fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. The first dedicated account of Somerville's legendary Force H, a fighting unit almost constantly in action between June 1940 and November 1941. Charged with maintaining the Navy's command of two theatres, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, during a crucial period, its best-known actions were the disabling of the French fleet at Mers-el-Kebir, the pursuit and destruction of the Bismarck and the supply of fighter aircraft to the beleagued fortress of Malta.
