Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super BattleshipPaperback, 19 September 2013

After the Royal Navy's bloody high seas campaign to kill the mighty Bismarck, the Allies were left with an uncomfortable truth--the German behemoth had a twin sister. Slightly larger than her sibling, the Tirpitz was equally capable of destroying any other battleship afloat, as well as wreak havoc on Allied troop and supply convoys. For the next three and a half years the Allies launched a variety of attacks to remove Germany's last serious surface threat.

"A thorough treatment, including material from interviews with survivors of their sinkings and the impact they had on the naval war in the Atlantic."--Seapower

"The authors have woven Tirpitz's story quite well, and in doing so explain the strategic implications and dramatic battles surrounding the super battleship. Their book is an excellent study of an aspect of naval strategy the Germans used with such aplomb . . . a welcome addition to my library."--Naval Historical Foundation
