  Battle of the River Plate

  This remains the most authoritative account of the British Naval victory at the commencement of World War II. Written from British and German official records, it recounts the sinking of the Graf Spee by scuttling just ouside Montivideo harbour. As well as providing intimate detail concerning the preceding naval battle, Dudley Pope covers the personalities, the intrigue and deceptions ashore, as well as recounting Graf Spee’s earlier history. A magnificent account from a renowned naval historian.
