Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Original cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. Neat name on f. paste down. Illustrated with photographs. Maps. 240 pages. The complete story of one of the worst disasters in the Royal Navy's history, the sinking by U-Boat 47 of the battleship H.M.S. Royal Oak and the loss of 833 lives, has never yet been told. In this new and exhaustively researched account the author has for the first time put into perspective the entire story by examining the dramatic events from both the British and German sides. Once and for all the much debated sabotage theory is laid to rest by the disclosure after more than thirty years of conclusive evidence obtained by divers who examined the wreck the day after the disaster. The hand-written testimonies of most of the 400 British survivors, previously withheld by the Admiralty, in keeping with the Official Secrets Act, now provide invaluable material on which the author has drawn to recreate the agony of the Royal Oak in her Last moments. In search of the full story he has sought out as many of the survivors as possible, locating, interviewing, or corresponding with not only nine of U-47's original crew, but also with the U-Boat Chief of Operations, former German Admiral Eberhardt Godt and the mastermind Grossadmiral Karl Dbnitz, who told him how he personally conceived and planned U-47's raid into Scapa Flow.
