Author: ROYAL NAVY
Title: The Royal Navy and the Arctic Convoys, 1941-1942. [With an introduction by M. Llewellyn-Jones]. NEAR FINE COPY IN DUSTWRAPPER
Description: Routledge,, [2006]. 4to., First Edition, with illustrations and numerous plans (many coloured in outline) in the text; cloth, gilt back, a fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. Naval Staff Histories were produced after WWII in order to provide as full an account of the various actions as was possible at the time. The audience was largely serving officers; some of the volumes were classified, not to restrict their distribution but to allow the writers to be as candid as possible. At this stage of history they represent a uniquely valuable resource. One of the later such histories, this account was originally issued in 1954 and, although subsequently declassified, is published here for the first time.
