Sinking the battleship HMS Royal Oak with the loss of more than 800 of her crew, was Germanys first shattering blow against Britain in the 193945 war. Within six weeks the long-standing German dream of breaching the defences of Scapa Flow had been achieved.
The author has interviewed Royal Oak survivors, members of U-47s 1939 crew, Lt. Priens widow and members of the firm which published his autobiography. He has examined all the official accounts and investigated every point of controversy until he was able to set down a documented, definitive account of this British naval disaster.
