War at Sea: A Naval Atlas, 1939-1945 suits readers who understand campaigns best through maps. A Battle of the Atlantic plot contrasts where merchant ships were sunk with where U-boats were lost, revealing the difference between U-boat transit routes and attack areas. The visual pattern makes an operational argument that a list of sinkings would hide. Cartographer Peter Wilkinson designed and drew the maps, while Marcus Faulkner supplied the historical content. The result connects daily operations, ship movements, and strategic geography across the maritime war.
