River Plate 1939

Product Description

The first major naval action of World War II, the Battle of the River Plate provided a much-needed victory for the British as they ended the hunting spree of the formidable German 'pocket battleship' Graf Spee across the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean. Fully illustrated throughout, this engaging study fills a gap in Osprey's coverage of World War II and will appeal to both military and naval historians alike.
