Attack & Sink, the Battle of the Atlantic, Summer 1941

More about the book

The narrative centers on a perilous naval convoy during World War II, specifically the SC42, which faced relentless attacks from German U-boats. As the convoy, laden with crucial supplies for the UK, embarked from Nova Scotia, it was shadowed by a formidable threat, with U-boats sinking ships at an alarming rate. The escort, comprised of inexperienced Canadian naval vessels, struggled against the odds during a seven-day battle. Firsthand accounts enrich the story, while Captain Bernard Edwards' extensive maritime experience lends authenticity and depth to the dramatic events.
