There is a wealth of knowledge presented in this work. The research that went into it is very meticulous. This edition includes years of updated research done since the hardback was originally published in 1996 as A Distant Storm. Happily, the text is always interesting and entertaining. If you want to learn the facts about this period of naval warfare there is no better way to do so than by reading this book. I’m certainly glad I did.
