by Alexander McKee
Hardbound edition published by Holt, Reinhart and Winston, New York in 1960, containing 211 pages, 15 photographs.
This book tells the story of the sinking of the battleship HMS ROYAL OAK, almost exclusively from the British side. No effort was made to include the German perceptive, other than using existing literature, primarily Prien's autobiography. This is not a particularly useful book.
