Аннотация

"A HIT!" the German admiral said.
An enormous pillar of smoke arose from the stricken HOOD, England's largest, most powerful battlecruiser. Bow and stern lifted high out of the water, as the ship's waist disappeared. Fragments of men and armor plate flew into the air. Then there was nothing to be seen. Nothing. A great ship and two thousand British sailors died in that single instant. On the bridge of the BISMARCK, the captain
said to the admiral: "This is a victory, sir. Crushing, decisive. Your name will go down in history." And the BISMARCK ploughed ahead, into the open Atlantic, free to raid, destroy, prey on the millions of tons of British shipping, free to win the war.
