Description: In may 1941 the German battleship Bismark , accompanied by heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen , broke out into the Atlantc to attack Allied shipping.
The Royal Navy's persuit and subsequent destruction of the Bismatck was an epic of naval warfare.
In this new account of those dramatic events at the height of the Second World War , Iain Ballantyne draw extensively on the graphic eyewitness testimony of verterant to contruct a thrilling story , mainly from the point of view of the British battleship , cruisers , and destroyers involved.
He describes tense atmosphere as cruisers play a lethal cat and mouse game., shadowing the Birsmarck in the icy Denmark Strait.
We witness the shocking destruction of the British battle cruiser HMS Hood , in wich all but three of her ship's complement were killed, an event that fueled pursuing Royal Navy warships , including the battered battleship Prince of Wales , with a thirst for revange.
While Swordfish torpedo bombers try desperately to cripple the Bismarck , we sail in destroyers on their own daring torpedo attacks , battleing moutainous seas.
Finally the author takes us into the last showdown , as Battleships Rodney and King George V , supported by cruisers Norfolk and Dorsethire , destroy the pride of Hitler's fleet.
This vivid , superbly researched account portrays this epic saga through the eyes of xo called ordinary sailors caught up in extraordinary events.
Killing the Bismarck is an outstanding book , conveying the horror and majesty of war at sea in all its cold brutality and awesome power.
