This is an excellent analysis of the story of the Bismarck. The detail is fine-grained, and the authors note that both sides had to cope with extremely serious technical, communications, and planning challenges. After Bismarck sunk the battlecruiser HMS Hood, it was absolutely imperative for the British to find and sink the German ship. Yet, Bismarck was a fast and extremely formidable ship with 15 inch guns that were more accurate and had longer range than most of the British battleships, many of which were older. The authors keep us informed of the large number of factors that had to be constantly assessed throughout this confrontation. Eventually the Bismarck was doomed by a brilliant or lucky torpedo shot from a Swordfish biplane, which left the crew unable to effectively steer the ship. The authors also leave us with a "doomsday scenario" that might have occurred if the Bismarck had escaped. They suggest that if Admiral Lutjens had reached France with this ship, he might have come back to sea eventually and establish a task force composed of the Bismarck, its sister ship the Tirpitz, and the smaller but still very powerful battleships (sometimes considered battlecruisers ) Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. What a fight for the British home fleet then! Not fully clear who would have won.
Despite other reviews to the contrary, I did not find the writing dry or uninteresting. On the contrary, both times through I was fully engaged with the account.The Bismarck was a magnificent ship. It was almost impossible to sink even when hammered from all directions in its final battle.It was also essentially useless. The ship was at war for only about 9 days before it went down.Germany might have fared better in the war if the steel, fuel, men, training and supplies needed to send the Bismarck to sea had instead been used for submarines and tanks.The tactical/strategic idea was to turn the Bismarck and a few other ships loose on Allied convoys and wreak destruction. One problem appeared immediately. The total view from a battleship covers about the head of a pin on a map. Just finding targets proved enormously difficult. So we come to see these enormous ships, manned with thousands of men, burning tons of scarce fuel, driving back and forth through the gray, towering waves of the seas and accomplishing next to nothing.Of course, more than just the men, steel, guns, and weaponry of the Bismarck were involved in the enterprise. It had to be fed and fueled so ships loaded with provisions were posted in different regions of the sea to supply the fighters. No battleship was needed to take out those supply ships. Destroyers could easily sink one when discovered and a ship like the Bismarck could be driven back to port without a shot being fired at it. Ultimately, after the Bismarck was sunk, the supply ships were swept from the oceans to deprive other German warships of supplies.No battleship sails without needed regular refits, repairs and sometime visits to a dry dock. For German ships they either had to take the guarded route north of Scotland or sail to captured French ports where they were at risk of aerial attack.It was heading to the Atlantic on the northern route that Bismarck encountered the HMS Hood. In that encounter, HMS Hood was sunk and the mighty Bismarck received its first wound. Although HMS Hood was the largest warship in the world, it was an unequal contest. Bismarck was a true battleship, fully armored, but HMS Hood was actually a battle cruiser. It looked like a battleship, but it was more lightly armored and, in theory, should not have had to get into a battering contest with a true battleship. Certainly that lesson was learned during World War I.Although Bismarck did get battle honors for sinking the Hood, its sister ship, Tirpitz, never accomplished anything unless one counts a bombardment of shacks in a far north settlement. Hitler came to realize how wasteful the giant ships were and ordered them decommissioned and their guns removed for coastal defense. The German navy stalled and the Tirpitz was sunk by English bombers before it could be dismantled.Both these author's books, this one on Bismarck and the other on Tirpitz TIRPITZ: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super Battleship, are entertaining and informative, but anyone looking for great battleship history and combat should read Castles of Steel, a truly great book about battleships at war, Castles of Steel: Britain, Germany, and the Winning of the Great War at Sea
Without boring you to death with technical details, this book will give at least all the basic facts about this unbeliavable chase and unequal battle between dozens of ships (and airplanes!) against one German ship (even being a very powerful one). It is a fast read, breathtaking and despairing at the same time.However, there are indeed various typo errors. Also, a new world record for the use of the word "unfortunately" beginning a sentence must have been set in this book!
(Review is of the Kindle edition) I have to agree with others that this is a fascinating story, and the author has clearly done his homework to assemble credible courses and to think through the events in a way that I found compelling - I really could not put this down.At the same time, the book is more of a rough author's draft than a product ready to be published! It's repetitive; individuals are referred to repeatedly and only much later introduced; and, it's riddled with spelling and grammatical errors (some bad enough to make the meaning of sentences unclear.) On my Kindle (even when using the Kindle computer reading apps, so I could have the big screen) the various maps are pretty much illegible.The book needs a good edit to be a great book. But, as I say, I still could not stop reading this compelling story, and I feel I understand what happened much better.One substantive criticism is that there is little mention of some of the controversies about the sinking - in particular, whether it was scuttled or sunk by Allied action.One other thing - the Bismarck was subsequently located on the ocean floor, which would, one might think, be worth at least a post-scriptural mention!
There must be hundreds of books, TV shows, and magazine articles dedicated to the sinking of the Bismarck therefore it may be difficult to find anything new on any work about this battleship. Nevertheless it is a good reading for the naval enthusiast. The book beginds with a brief history of the battleship including of course the Dreadnought era. The central characters are the commanders of both the German and the English squadrons, Churchill makes only a brief appearance here therefore this is a book about ships, naval strategy and naval commanders and does not mess much with the politics nor the politicians from both sides.The Kindle version has several typos and minor editorial flaws that should be corrected, the maps aren't a great deal either but you must have into account that this is not a book that should valued by its graphic content but by its narrative.
