It soon becaome obvious that they were sailing to war. But with no advantage in the air or on land and the vast distances involved, many felt victory was at best unlikely - and at worst, impossible. As the Battle Group Commander, Admiral Sandy Woodward was the man in charge on the frontline. In this ... account, he takes us from day 1 to day 100 of the conflict; through the tragic losses of ships and men to the defeat of the Argentinian Navy and the retaking of the islands. ..."--Back cover.
