4.0 out of 5 stars The Aerial attacks on Tirpitz, 9 Mar 2009

By	G. M. Brown (Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tirpitz: Hunting the Beast (Paperback)

A fairly comprehensive description of the various aerial attacks by the Fleet Air Arm and RAF on the battleship Tirpitz including the successful attack by 617 Dambuster squadron that eventually sank her. The historic attack by midget submarines - more successful than was realised at the time - gets barely a mention but I suppose this is well covered in other books. I would have liked a few more photographs of the successful raid but that apart a good account of a unique story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Title Misses something, 23 Mar 2009

By	Mr. P. A. Johnston "Paul Johnston" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tirpitz: Hunting the Beast (Paperback)

Entirely agree with previous review, the hardback was entitled
Tirpitz: Hunting the Beast: Air Attacks on the German Battleship 1940-44
which is a lot more accurate.
Top class glossary and abbreviations section which is often a let down, not so here.
