The battle of Cape Matapan on March 27–29, 1941 became the largest and most effective sea confrontation on the Mediterranean Sea during World War II. For the first time in history, the outcome of the battle at sea was decided by deck aircraft. It was after Matapan that the aircraft carriers turned into the most formidable opponents of the battleships. The new book of a famous military historian for the first time in Russian literature in all details restores the course of one of the most famous sea battles in history.
