From Hunter to Hunted : The U-Boat in the Atlantic, 1939-1943

Dedicated to Naval History in the Nelson Era: New Series 4

The raising of the Mary Rose in 1982 was a remarkable feat of archaeology and her subsequent preservation and display at Portsmouth a triumph of technical skill and imagination. She is more than a relic, however. She has a story to tell, and her sinking in the Solent in 1545, when under attack by the French, and the reasons for it, have intrigued historians for generations. With the benefit of access to her remains, archaeologists have been able to slowly unravel the mystery of her foundering on a calm summer's day in July 1545.

In this revised edition of what could be regarded as the standard reference work on later Clyde Steamer history, the author has rewritten the previous edition and added more new material relating to more recent changes.
