Focke-Wulf Condor

More about the book

The Condor, Germany's giant long range four engine bomber, described by Winston Churchill as the "Scourge of the Atlantic" was highly successful, in conjunction with U-boat wolf packs, in bringing Britain to near defeat in the Battle of the Atlantic. Here Kenneth Poolman recounts with graphic details, a grim battle of attrition in which the Aliies fought to counter the Condor with brilliant improvisation and fortitude.
