Churchill's Arctic Convoys - Strength Triumphs Over Adversity
Churchill’s Arctic Convoys – Strength Triumphs Over Adversity
The book has been out for almost six months now and I would be interested in any feedback from those who have had an opportunity to read it.
My aim was to provide in one source a comprehensive account of the convoy programme form end to end explaining the political, diplomatic and military events which determined when the convoys ran and how large they were and to accurately identify every merchant ship and naval vessel lost on passage or in North Russian ports as I had found many gaps in previous narratives and inaccuracies in casualty figures.
All and any comments would be welcome.
Copies are still available, best buy being Books Etc at £16.14 with free delivery.

#1 I havent had the urge for the past 20 years or so to read any books, but am sure if I had would have read yours. I think books have more content than reading excerts of the media especially when you see all of the faults and misinfomation there today on the likes of Google. . Best of luck with it and hope it does well. JS
