This review is from: The Sinking of the Belgrano (Hardcover)

I found this book to be in much greater detail than I expected. The authors explored the political arena indepth and the reprocussions of the events that followed. It is somewhat more of a political-text than just a relaxing read.

This incident was more of a historical event than most people realize, and I would suggest that anyone interested in Naval history, and or, South American politics should have a copy of this rather unique book.

This book covers the build up to the sinking of the Belgrano and to the Falklands war. Thatcher's determination for the war to proceed and her manipulation of the British public is horrifying.
