1942 The Second World War at Sea in Photographs

This is a unique look at the fourth year of the Second World War at sea, through the medium of old photographs. Although it was not quite the beginning of the end for the Germans, many see 1942 as the turning point of the war. This book, the fourth in a series covering the Second World War at sea year by year, covers the naval battles of the year. Throughout the year, there were many serious engagements, including the attempted sinking of the Stier in May, the Battle of Guadalcanal in the Pacific theater in November, and the Battle of Midway in June.
