Description: New book, some shelf wear to jacket, 256 pages. Some of the most hard-fought naval actions of WW2 took place in the most northerly waters of the world - the Arctic Ocean. Ships progressively covered in ice, battled through heavy seas, all the while under attack from German submarines, aircraft, and surface ships, as they braved the route from Britain to Russia. Meticulously researched from original operational orders and reports, this is an authoritative history as well as an entertaining narrative account of a fascinating period of naval history.
