The Battle of the Denmark Strait: A Critical Analysis of the Bismarck's Singular Triumph

Geschiedenis

This detailed analysis of the WWII naval battle by the acclaimed historian and mechanical engineer reveals new insight into the Bismarck’s victory. In the spring of 1942, Nazi Germany unleashed its behemoth battleship Bismarck against the British in the Battle of the Denmark Strait. Bismarck destroyed the pride of the Royal Navy, HMS Hood, and severely damaged its newest battleship, HMS Prince of Whales. The decisive victory resonated both in Whitehall and Berlin—and yet there continues to be controversy as to how the conflict was actually fought. The Battle of the Denmark Strait offers a detailed technical analysis of combat circumstances, while new discoveries, revealed for the first time in this book, shed light on the battle. With a close examination of naval gunnery, from the various gun systems to the flight time of shells to their target, historian and mechanical engineer Robert Winklareth has painstakingly reconstructed the battle. He also explores events leading up to the titanic clash, as well as its aftermath.
