The Royal dockyards, which have a tradition of shipbuilding that stretches back almost 500 years, have a fascinating history.
In May1941 the German battleship Bismarck, at the time the most formidable fighting ship afloat, escaped into the Atlantic. Her presence there posed a fearful threat to the convoys that kept Britain alive.
A fascinating record of the British Naval heritage. That heritage is presented here as a diary of daily events, not just of great battles but of all that has built the Royal Navy’s 700 year old tradition.
