Название: Hitler's Armada: The Royal Navy and the Defence of Great Britain April - October 1940 Автор: Geoff Hewitt Издательство: Pen & Sword ISBN: 1844157857 Год: 2008 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 224 Размер: 14,5 МБ Язык: Английский Hitler's Armada examines the aborted German invasion of 1940 in a fresh and original manner by looking past the myths and legends which have subsequently surrounded it, in order to arrive at significant new conclusions by referring back to the actual events. The book presents fascinating detail of Hitler's Operation SEALION and, by study of its weaknesses, demonstrates that control of the sea, not the air, was the critical factor. It also questions whether the traditional British view of the importance of the Battle of Britain as the key factor in the prevention of invasion is really tenable.
