Description: |
Covering three major theatres of combat - the Atlantic, the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean, this volume reveals how crucial victory at sea was to the outcome of World War II, as sea lanes were the logistical arteries of the Allies fighting abroad. World War II was won on land, but could easily have been lost at sea. |
Synopsis: |
This volume provides a comprehensive guide to three major theaters of combat: the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and the Indian Ocean. The war at sea was a critical contest, as sea-lanes provided the logistical arteries for British and subsequent Allied armies fighting on the three continents of Africa, Asia, and Europe. Land forces ultimately won World War II, but the battles at sea fundamentally altered the balance of military power on the ground. |
