    The German Navy 1939-1945 Cajus Bekker hardcover book 192 pages. Condition is New.
    This book deals not only with the wartime story of the German Navy but also shows how it was stealthily built up in the 20s and then openly expanded in the 30s in defiance of the Treaty of Versailles; how the pocket battleships were conceived and built,, to the consternation of Germany's rivals; and how the fateful decision was reached to give priority to big surface ships like the Bismarck and the Tirpitz rather than to U-boats.
