Carrier Glorious. The life and death of an aircraft carrier. Авианосец Глориес. Жизнь и смерть авианосца

Книга на английском языке

John Winton is one of the best naval writers around. He graphically recounts the loss of the carrier 'Glorious' to the German navy in 1940. It was a loss that should never have happened the way it did. An aircraft carrier with no combat air patrol up, nor a lookout aloft - surprised by German ships and sunk.
