River Wide, Ocean Deep is about Operation Sea Lion - Unternehmen Seelöwe - seen in a new perspective. 320 pages, A5 format, softcover, English text. Many photos. The author, Fred Leander, has taken an objective view on this eagerly discussed operation which never materialized and a hard look at the recent web-based discussions as he has experienced them.

The author is puncturing some myths such as:

The alleged superiority of the Royal Navy at the time and place

The inferior seaworthiness of the invasion barge fleet

The Luftwaffe\'s anti-ship capabilities

Admiral Raeder\'s quest for air superiority
