A Close Run Thing: The Navy and the Falklands War by
Richard Freeman
In 1982, Argentina invaded the Falkland Islands, triggering the last great naval battle of the 20th-century. The British Task Force sent to reclaim the islands was the largest amphibious landing since D-day in the Second World War.
In this ground-breaking essay, the acclaimed naval historian Richard Freeman tells the story of the Royal Navy in that momentous campaign. The ships had to transport the men, their machines and equipment, but also to supply them at a distance of nearly 8000 miles from their home ports.
