In this engaging narrative, brought to life by marine artist Ian Marshall's beautiful full-colour paintings, historian Paul Kennedy grapples with the rise and fall of the Great Powers during World War II. Tracking the movements of the six major navies of the Second World War - the allied navies of Britain, France, and the United States and the Axis navies of Germany, Italy, and Japan - Kennedy tells a story of naval battles, maritime campaigns, convoys, amphibious landings, and strikes from the sea.
