This work delivers an account of the sacrificial defense of a British convoy by its escort, Jervis Bay, against the Admiral Scheer, one of Germany's most feared warships. The authors place the battle in the context of contemporary naval and political events and describe the battle action aboard several ships, including the Admiral Scheer. B&w historical photos are included. Duskin, a self-taught naval historian, spent 12 years researching this story before his death in 2002. Segman is a science journalist.
