About the Book
The book examines how Naval Group West directed Germany's heavy ships and surface raiders against Allied Atlantic shipping, from the Admiral Graf Spee's commerce-raiding cruise to the loss of the Bismarck and the 1942 Channel Dash retreat from Brest, while also detailing the Kriegsmarine's command structure and its reliance on tankers, supply ships and signals intelligence.
