Description: ATTACK & SINK: The Battle of the Atlantic, Summer 1941 by Bernard Edwards. NEW First Edition stated hardcover, 2002. On 9 September 1941, the 21 U-boats of the Markgraf wolf-pack were signaled by German Admiral Donitz to pursue, attack and sink convoy SC42, a group of 63 slow merchant ships, all heavily laden with vital supplies for the United Kingdom. Having set sail from Nova Scotia, the convoy was strung out in 12 columns abreast, covering 25 miles of inhospitable ocean.

An established writer in the maritime field tells a story of courage and endurance from first hand accounts of participants on both sides. Listed new at $24.95.
