Target Tirpitz is gripping WW2 storytelling at its best and a return to the RAF territory of Patrick Bishop’s bestselling Bomber Boys and Fighter Boys.

The Tirpitz, Hitler’s greatest weapon, was reputed to be unsinkable and the battleship inflamed an Allied obsession: to destroy her at any cost.

More than thirty daring operations were launched against the 52,000 ton monster. Royal Navy midget submarines carried out an attack of extraordinary skill and courage against her when she lay deep in a Norwegian fjord in an operation that won VCs for two participants.

No permanent damage was done and the Fleet Air Arm was forced to launch full scale attacks through the summer of 1944 to try and finish her off. But still the Tirpitz remained a significant threat to Allied operations.

It was not until November 1944 that a brilliant operation by RAF Lancaster Bombers, under the command of one of Britain's greatest but least-known war heroes finally killed off Hitler’s last battleship.

Full of colour, insight and drama, Target Tirpitz is an unputdownable account of one of the great epics of the Second World War.

Eleştirmen yorumları

‘This is a great wartime story, gung-ho in its praise of the men who finally sank Tirpitz, yet compassionate towards her courageous crew. Already a bestselling war historian with his books on the RAF, Target Tirpitz proves that Bishop has sea legs, and this book should add another fleet of fans to his existing army of admirers.’

Transportative. Deftly takes the reader on the journeys of the myriad people and machines involved in the attempts to defeat the "Beast" and why, how and when certain decision makers chose the actions they did. Above all it vividly portrays the human experiences of the men involved with each mission and the technical ingenuity and shortcomings that affected them. Ripping yarns writ large and writ real.

The human factor

One of the best written History audio books I have ever heard.

Pat Bishop is a master of Frontline history telling the events through the ordinary sailors and airmen involved in the Tirpitz saga, but Bishop goes beyond that by providing full context and analysis of the many strategic twists and turns of the story that makes this such a wonderful book.



I very highly recomend to anyone interested in the Second World War.

Superb .... Buy it now!
