Description
An authoritative examination of the role of convoy between 1890 and 1990. Perfect for readers of
naval history, strategy and how convoys saved the allies in both World War One and Two.Convoy
is at the heart of naval history. The Navy had indeed been first formed specifically for convoy
protection: the nation’s prosperity and security depending upon the safe passage of ships carrying
troops and merchandise, in convoy, ever since the Middle Ages.So why was the subject of trade
defence so frequently and keenly debated? How did the best navy in the world come to abandon
its oldest and best practice when it needed it the most?Naval historian John Winton examines the
controversy — whether in time of war vessels can be better protected in convoys or sailing
individually in protected sea-lanes — and traces the arguments leading to the adoption of the
convoy system in the First World War and, despite its resounding success, grudging adoption in
the Second.The author shows how the advantage in the Battle of the Atlantic swung back and
forth until, in 1943, the German submarine fleets attempting to cut through Britain’s shipping
arteries were finally driven back by convoy escorts and long-range aircraft, assisted by
sophisticated new radar equipment. The discovery was made that convoy was more than a
cautious defence: it was actually the best offensive weapon against the U-boats.John Winton’s
expert analysis of the records combined with his knowledge of naval history result in a
comprehensive study of convoy sure to appeal to all maritime enthusiasts and those keen to learn
more about naval strategy between 1890 and 1990.‘a highly effective writer on naval subjects’ –
The Telegraph‘[John Winton] is acquiring a second reputation as an excellent historian’ – British
Book News‘The lessons of history are no more and no less important for us than they ever were
and John Winton’s book reminds us of vital facts we must keep to hand’ – RearAdmiral Sir John
