In Peril on the Sea: The Royal Canadian Navy and the Battle of the Atlantic - Graves, Donald E.

Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to inside corners; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; This is the story of a forgotten fighting service. In Peril on the Sea is the story of the Canadian navy and its important contribution to Allied victory in the Battle of the Atlantic - the most crucial battle of WWII. Much of this saga is presented through the personal accounts of 65 eyewitnesses - British, Canadian, German... sailors, submariners and merchant seamen - who participated in WWII's longest operation. The book contains nearly 200 photographs, drawings, maps, graphics and ship profiles which bring to life with compelling immediacy the grim but courageous struggle to preserve the sea lanes of freedom between 1939 and 1945.
