A comprehensive study of the sinking of the Blücher and its pivotal role in Hitler's Western European campaign.
'The definitive study of the battle that launched Hitler's conquest of Western Europe.'
Professor Andrew Lambert, King's College London
Based on careful research, this groundbreaking investigation into the sinking of the Blücher explores how and why the German cruiser was sunk and the ramifications of the event. The text is accompanied by 200 stunning photographs, many never-before-seen, and features eyewitness accounts from participants on both sides, as well as local Norwegian civilians, making this an intensely personal story of those involved.
Written by award-winning author Geirr H. Haarr together with Tor J rgen Melien, a retired Commander SG who served at Oscarsborg fortress, this is the most comprehensive and revealing study to date of this key moment in WWII, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in naval history and the Norwegian Campaign.
