WHAT IT IS?
Kriegsmarine: The Illustrated History of the German Navy in WWII,
by Robert Jackson, is organized into chapters which deal with a class or classes of vessel. Good illustrations are well integrated into a somewhat lackluster text. There are also a number of errors, most probably due to editing throughout the text. These errors come in several different flavors: Dates of events, such as the launch date of the Tirpitz, strategic spelling, such as 'flnak' when flank was obviously meant, and arithmetic, such as '88mm' guns being notated as '4.46 inches' rather than '3.46'. This type of error abounds and makes it very distracting to read.
READABLE FORM AND EASY ORGANIZATION

The fourth offering in the series that includes Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe and Panzer, Kriegsmarine brings you the story of the naval forces of the Third Reich. Even without a large surface fleet, German ships like the Graf Spee, Bismarck and Tirpitz kept Allied forces occupied, while the U-boat fleet proved a formidable force beneath the waves. All categories of German vessels are explored, accompanied by an authoritative history of the Kriegsmarine.
