There is much anecdotal material including an interview with the German submarine commander who sank the Barham and is now a resident of Canada." - from dust jacket. Book practically as new. Dust jacket in beautiful condition and now in archival-grade Brodart protective cover. Its spine is a different shade of green than that of the front and back panels.
