Customer Reviews

Decent Bismarck book

Written for the younger set, this book is good for capturing the overall situation in the launching, pursuit, and destruction of the German battleship.

A junior version of the full sized book

This is a good book for the age group it's aimed for which most definitely is not adults.Whilst the pictures and illustrations are of extremely high quality the text is pitched at no older than early teens.Adults should by Dr Ballard's "The Discovery of the Bismark" which is a fantastic book!
